Sumit Ruikar is a high quality Indian all rounder who has dominated the UK club cricket scene over the last few years.
A left arm spinner and middle order batter, Sumit has an enviable record both domestically in professional cricket and abroad in the UK as an overseas professional. His stats for Wallasey CC over a five year period (2019-24), in one of the strongest leagues in the country (Liverpool & District Premier League), were simply sensational. He then backed up with another outstanding stint for Garstang (2025) in the Northern Premier League.
2019 - 75 wickets @ 11.76, 511 runs @ 23.23
2021 - 105 wickets @ 10.71, 529 runs @ 35.27
2022 - 127 wickets @ 11.24, 867 runs @ 34.68
2023 - 57 wickets @ 16.51, 584 runs @ 29.20
2024 - 69 wickets @ 16.33, 607 runs @ 31.95
2025 - 58 wickets @ 14.12, 547 runs @ 26.05
Sometimes the stats just speak for themselves and it is quite clear that Sumit represents one of the best overseas options to clubs in 2026.
Given recent Home Office changes, unfortunately Sumit is unavailable for a UK return, thus is seeking an opportunity in Europe.
