Family Roots & Early Life

Himmat Singh was exposed to sports at a young age because he was born into a family that valued athletics. He began playing lawn tennis, encouraged by his older sister, but with the help of his mother Veena Singh and father Tejbir, he finally turned to cricket. When he was around six or seven, the family moved from Paschim Vihar to South Delhi, which helped him develop as a cricket player at Sonnet Cricket Club under coach Tarak Sinha.

He developed his emphasis on skill and fitness while attending Modern Public School on Barakhambha Road, which is also the alma mater of famous cricket players Gautam Gambhir and Unmukt Chand. Before switching to off-spin and concentrating on batting, Himmat bowled medium pace at first, drawing inspiration from Brett Lee.

Education & Sporting Milestones

Himmat played for Delhi in the Under-14, Under-16, Under-19, and Under-23 age groups. He put up impressive school performances, like as an undefeated 250 and a second-inning 60 that attracted the attention of selectors. In December 2015, he made his List-A debut, and in October 2017, he made his first-class debut for Delhi.

Soon after his Vijay Hazare debut, there was a controversy: well-known former players claimed that his father gave ₹25 lakhs to Delhi selectors. Tejbir Singh, however, filed defamation lawsuits, arguing that his son was deserving.

Domestic Prowess & Captaincy

Himmat has excelled in the 2024 Delhi Premier League and captained Delhi in the Ranji Trophy, among other domestic accomplishments. He led the East Delhi Riders to victory with 381 runs in 9 innings as captain (avg 63.5, SR 165.65). Additionally, he played club cricket for teams including Sonnet Cricket Club, Rann Star, and East Molesey CC.

Personal Life: Siblings, Marriage & Lifestyle

Personal Life: Siblings, Marriage & Lifestyle

With tattoos (a trident on his neck, left elbow, and wrist), piercings in both ears, and a strong interest in anime (particularly Naruto's Akatsuki), video games, travel, swimming, and taking care of his beloved dog, he maintains a dynamic personal style.

IPL Journey & LSG Role

After being selected for ₹65 lakhs by Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2019 IPL auction, Himmat was released after just one season because he failed to make the final XI. When LSG purchased him in 2025 at his base price of ₹30 lakhs, he produced a spectacular return.

He made his IPL 2025 debut for Lucknow Super Giants as a middle-order backup to Rishabh Pant and Justin Langer, and is renowned for his power striking (more than 40 sixes in T20s, with a best score of 77*) and poise. His inclusion signifies a calculated bet in future talent, even though LSG hasn't made it to the playoffs.

Role, Fitness & Mental Approach

He is listed at 178 cm and about 65 kg (chest 40, waist 32, biceps 12), making him the athletic, nimble type perfect for middle-order hitting. He bowls off-spin, bats right-handed, and is renowned for his fitness focus; visualization exercises keep him composed and prepared.

Ambitions & Future

Himmat's stated "make-or-break" season mentality is exemplified by his IPL debut. He has endorsement agreements with SG Cricket and Fairplay Sports, and he is still inspired by the guidance of players like Virat Kohli from his time with the RCB. As he approaches his prime at age 28, he wants to establish himself and win recognition for India A or senior India by putting up steady IPL performances.

A Rising Star Poised for IPL Impact

Aryan Juyal exemplifies the journey of a dedicated athlete: talented, persistent, and always learning. Rising from age‑group dominance to domestic excellence, he’s now part of LSG’s strategic squad. While never officially debuting in the IPL by July 2025, all signs point toward his careful grooming as a reliable back-up keeper and dependable middle-order bat. With his firm domestic credentials and steady growth, Aryan Juyal is well on his way to becoming a key player for Lucknow in the seasons ahead.
