Suyash Prabhudessai impressed the IPL scouts with his batting prowess in the 2020-2021 Ranji season. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) then signed Suyash Prabhudessai in the 2021 IPL season. Although he didn’t play any matches that season, he made his IPL debut the following year and enjoyed moderate success. In the 2022 IPL season, Prabhudessai played 5 matches and scored 67 runs for RCB, showcasing promise that secured him a contract for the next two years.
However, the 2023 season proved challenging, as he managed only 35 runs in 5 matches with a concerningly low average of 8.75. Despite this inconsistent performance, RCB surprisingly retained him for the upcoming 2024 IPL. While Rajat Patidar’s potential return might present competition, Prabhudessai will undoubtedly aim to showcase his talent and solidify his place in the RCB squad for the seasons to come.
