Kartik Tyagi had shown great talent in 2020 after the U19 World Cup, where India ended as runners-up. He was also part of India’s squad for the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia as well. However, injuries to his back and shin derailed his progress. After spending quite some time out of the game, working on his fitness, Tyagi has returned with fire and impressed everyone by bowling consistently over 145 kph.
He impressed with his pace and snared 18 wickets in 11 matches for Meerut Mavericks in the 2025 UP T20 League. He was then picked by KKR in IPL 2026 and took 18 wickets in 13 matches.
Even earlier in the ongoing UPT20 League 2026, Tyagi had turned heads with a searing 149 kph yorker against the Noida Kings. The inswinging yorker swerved into the left-handed Shaurya Singh, and even before his bat could come down, his stumps were flattened.
