Format-aware deep dive
Where he dominates
Home record
Average 21.4 on Indian soil — better than any active spinner of the era.
Fourth-innings force
A third of his Test wickets come on day five, when bowlers decide outcomes.
Lower-order resilience
At No.7 his average beats every Indian specialist in that slot since 2015.
Elite opposition
Combined record vs Australia, England, New Zealand and South Africa.
Consistency
Third-most by any Indian bowler since his Test debut.
WTC presence
In the conversation every cycle. Central to this India red-ball side.
Career threads
Beyond the numbers
Elite across all three formats
788 wickets across all formats. Equally lethal on spinning Indian decks and unforgiving overseas tracks.
Test cricket is where the numbers peak
A batting average in all-rounder territory, a bowling average in the mid-twenties, a No.1 ranking held across multiple cycles.
A franchise career of its own
250 IPL appearances, 173 wickets — four titles with Chennai, and the 2026 move brings it full circle.
Sir Jadeja
The meme that became a compliment. A cultural marker only a handful of modern players carry.

RP Singh's profile
Historical aggregates derived from Cricsheet (cricsheet.org) under ODC-BY licence. 2001/02–2026 IPL seasons. Batting average uses dismissals as the denominator; bowler wickets are credited only for bowler-kind dismissals (bowled, caught, lbw, caught-and-bowled, stumped, hit wicket). Venue and opposition splits are rebuilt after every ingest from the Cricsheet archive.
