Milind Kumar, born on 15 February 1991 in Delhi, currently plays for the United States of America team. Before moving to the USA, he played all his cricket in India. Milind is a right-handed batsman. He moved to the USA in 2021. There, he made his cricket debut in the minor league cricket tournament. Since 2023, he has been playing for the Texas Super Kings.
Cricket journey in India:
If we talk about Ranji Trophy, he played his cricket for Delhi, Tripura, and Sikkim, and was also selected in IPL, which are Delhi Daredevils and Royal Challengers Bangalore, but he never got a chance in the playing eleven. He has good Ranji Trophy experience; he averaged 46 in Ranji, and his best season was the 2018-19 Ranji Trophy, when he scored 1331 runs.
Milind’s record and USA dominance in the UAE:
Currently, the ICC Cricket World Cup League Two 2023-27 is going on, under which the USA is touring the United Arab Emirates. When the UAE won the toss and came to bat, they had lost 3 wickets for 28 runs, then Saiteja and Milind came to bat. Both of them together made a partnership of 264 runs and did not give any chance to the UAE bowlers to take a wicket. In this way, their score reached 292/3. In this, Saiteja remained at 137* and Kumar remained at 123* not out.
Milind Kumar century:
With this 123* ton, he has set a new record. Milind has the highest average of 67.73 in ODIs for a minimum of 20 innings, surpassing Virat Kohli and Ryan ten Doeschate.
After scoring 292 runs, when the UAE comes to bat, they are unable to stand at all in front of the US. Saurabh Netravalkar and Rushil Ugarkar bowl so well that the UAE gets all out for 49 runs. In this, Saurabh takes 3 wickets and Rushil claims his own maiden 5-wicket haul. And whatever is left is completed by Milind and Shubham by taking one wicket each. Based on this brilliant bowling, America wins this match by 243 runs.
