Another Indian Spinner Lands In England As Sai Kishore Joins Surrey

Less than 24 hours after leading IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans to an emphatic victory in the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2025 Final, more good news comes in the way of R Sai Kishore, who has signed up to play for Surrey in the County Championship.

Surrey are currently top of Division 1 in the County Championship, and Sai Kishore has signed up to play the side’s next two matches, against Yorkshire and Durham.

“I’m really excited to be joining Surrey for the next two County Championship matches. Surrey are one of the most prestigious clubs in the world and I have heard great things about the set-up from lots of different people in the game,” Sai Kishore said of the deal.

Speaking of the club’s new signing, Alec Stewart, Surrey’s High-Performance advisor, said, “I’m delighted to bring the highly rated Sai Kishore into our squad for the next two Kookaburra games.

“All the reports I have received from people I respect in the Indian game have spoken highly of him. His four-day record for Tamil Nadu is very good, and he brings leadership experience to the group.”

Sai Kishore has played 46 first-class games and has taken 192 wickets at an average of 23.51. He also has three first-class fifties to his name, with a highest score of 81.
