Ryan Rickelton: South Africa’s Multi-Format Powerhouse Ryan Rickelton has rapidly ascended the ranks of international cricket, establishing himself as a versatile and explosive top-order asset. A member of South Africa’s squad that reached the 2024 T20 World Cup final, Rickelton’s “purple patch” truly ignited during the 2025 Champions Trophy. In a career-defining moment, he hammered a maiden ODI century (103 runs) against Afghanistan in the tournament opener, becoming the first South African wicketkeeper to score a ton in the Champions Trophy. His ability to anchor an innings while maintaining a high strike rate across formats makes him a strategic addition to the Mumbai Indians’ roster for the 2026 season.
