Biography
His grandfather was an Olympic gold medal winning hockey player, his father was the coach who unearthed the great Yuvraj Singh. So surrounded by greatness, it was only a matter of time before Raj Bawa made his mark in the world of sports.
Raj Bawa took to cricket naturally with his father being a renowned coach who has his own academy. He idolized Yuvraj Singh as a youngster, so much so that he became a left-handed batter looking at Yuvraj bat despite being a natural right hander. Bawa performed admirably at age group level tournaments, performing well with both bat and ball and was fast-tracked to make the flight to West Indies for the 2021 U19 World Cup.
Raj Bawa played all games in that World Cup, scoring a few cameos with bat but was definitely more effective with the ball in hand. He picked up nine wickets in the tournament, which included a fifer in the final for which Raj Bawa was named Man of the Match.
Fresh off that World Cup triumph, Raj Bawa had plenty of interest at the IPL auction and was picked by Punjab Kings. His chances though have been few and far in the IPL so far, having played just two games in the 2022 season.
