Milind Kumar’s journey from the bustling streets of Delhi to the cricket fields of the United States is a testament to his relentless pursuit of excellence. Born into a family that valued hard work—his father a banker and his mother a homemaker—Milind’s early fascination with cricket blossomed into a career that would see him represent both India and the USA. He began playing at a young age, honing his skills in the competitive Indian domestic circuit, where he made a name for himself with impressive performances for teams like Delhi, Tripura, and Sikkim.

In 2018, he topped the Ranji Trophy charts with 1,331 runs, a feat that caught the attention of the Royal Challengers Bangalore, who signed him for the IPL. Yet, it was his move to the USA that marked a pivotal shift in his career. In June 2021, he was drafted into the Minor League Cricket tournament, and by 2023, he was playing for the Texas Super Kings in the inaugural Major League Cricket season. His T20I debut for the USA in April 2024 against Canada was a proud moment, symbolizing his commitment to growing the sport in his new home.

Milind believes that cricket transcends borders, and his journey reflects that ethos. With over 1,000 runs and 28 wickets in ODIs, he is not just an all-rounder but a beacon of hope for aspiring cricketers in the USA. As he prepares for future challenges, including the upcoming T20I series, Milind remains grounded, driven by a passion for the game and a desire to inspire the next generation of cricketers.
