Sidak Singh (born 17 May 1999) is an Indian cricketer who plays for Mumbai in domestic cricket. A slow left-arm orthodox spinner, Singh made his competitive cricket debut for Mumbai at the age of 15 in March 2015 after impressive performances in the under-15 and under-19 age-group levels. He thus became the youngest player to debut for Mumbai since Sachin Tendulkar.[1]
After including Singh in Mumbai squad for the 2014–15 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in March 2015, the Mumbai Cricket Association selector Milind Rege remarked, "I am utmost impressed. We were looking for someone like him to take Mumbai cricket forward. We played him in two trial matches to pick the Mumbai team. I asked the captain of the team to bowl him in the power play overs and I think he fulfilled what we were looking for. He’s accurate, a brilliant fielder and has the cricketing IQ."[2]
