In November 2024, Patel was appointed as the assistant and batting coach of Gujarat Titans for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League. [5]

Domestic career

Patel led the Gujarat side in the 2016–17 Ranji Trophy. Beating Odisha and Jharkhand in the quarterfinal and semifinal, the team reached the final for only the second time. In the final in January, they met defending champions Mumbai in Indore. Patel scored 90 in the first inning and 143 in the second and helped beat Gujarat to win its first Trophy. [6] Patel's 143 was the highest in a successful chase in a Ranji Trophy final. The win also made Gujarat the first team and Patel the first captain to have won all three major titles in domestic cricket in India. [7]

In July 2018, he was named as the captain for India Green for the 2018–19 Duleep Trophy. [8] In October 2019, he was named as the captain of India B for the 2019–20 Deodhar Trophy. [9]

Indian Premier League

Patel was auctioned in the inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL) to Chennai Super Kings. [10] He used to be a regular in the team and opened with the former Australian opener Matthew Hayden.

International career

Parthiv debuted in the year 2002 against England at Trent Bridge at 17 years and 153 days to become Test Cricket's youngest wicketkeeper. He had replaced the injured Ajay Ratra and eclipsed the record previously held by Pakistan's Hanif Mohammed (17 years and 300 days). He played out an hour in the match while batting and hence saved India from defeat. However, with the emergence of Dhoni and poor wicketkeeping, he was sidelined for a few matches in 2004. [16]

[17] He played his first Test in eight years, having missed 83 Test matches between appearances. [18]

Patel made his ODI debut against New Zealand in January 2003. [19] He was selected in the Indian squad for the 2003 Cricket World Cup but did not play any games, with Rahul Dravid being used as a makeshift wicket-keeper to allow the use of an extra batsman or bowler. With this policy in place, Patel only made intermittent appearances in ODIs, usually when Dravid was injured or being rested (in full or from wicket-keeping duties). He played 13 ODIs in a two-year span, and during an interrupted career managed only an average of 14.66 and a top-score of 28 and was dropped thereafter. Parthiv returned to the Indian team in 2010 in the 4th and 5th Odi vs New Zealand. He celebrated this moment by hitting two back to back half centuries. Later on he was called up for replacing injured Sachin Tendulkar in India tour South Africa . [20]

He opened the batting along with another left-handed debutante Shikhar Dhawan and made a 26 from 20 balls. In the second ODI against West Indies he scored 56 not out.

England tour of India 2016

With wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha injured, Parthiv was called to test team duty for the third test in Mohali. He proved the selectors' decision was right with two good innings including an unbeaten 67 runs from 54 balls in the second innings which led India to victory.

One of the Indian cricketers to play T20 match in 2005

Parthiv Patel, along with Robin Singh and Rohan Gavaskar played their first T20 match in 2005. [21] This was the early phase of t20 format. But the first Indian cricketer to play a t20 match was Dinesh Mongia. [22] He played his debut match in July 2004.
