21-year-old Prithviraj is a left arm pacer who does not have much experience in playing domestic cricket. He was included in the IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders last year. The pacer made a memorable debut in first-class cricket against Tamil Nadu in 2017-18. Impacting his line length and fast, Prithvi took a total of six wickets in the match which included three wickets in both innings.

Prithviraj has also represented Andhra Pradesh at junior level. His specialty of taking wickets in the short format of cricket makes him different from the rest. Along with Paes, he also has a variety which is his major weapon in limited overs cricket. Prithviraj’s dream debut has also been in the IPL. Playing for KKR, he got a chance to play against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
In this, he had come very close to taking the wicket of Johnny Bairstow, the batsman of England but Cariappa gave up his catch. He did not give up after this and in his new spell of the same match took the valuable wicket of Hyderabad captain David Warner. After this match, he did not get a chance in the next few matches. He played his second match against Rajasthan but he could not impress with his performance and lobbed 28 runs in two overs.
