Calicut Globstars — Kerala Cricket League T20

The Globstars' primary middle-order match-winner. Salman Nizar wrote Kerala Cricket League history in Season 2 with his astonishing, undefeated 86 off just 26 deliveries against the Trivandrum Royals — launching 11 sixes in 13 balls and scoring an incredible 40 runs in the final over to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. A stylish left-handed batter with immense power against both spin and pace, Nizar has represented Kerala across formats in the Ranji Trophy, Vijay Hazare Trophy, and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, earning a South Zone Duleep Trophy call-up. In KCL Season 2, he scored 296 runs in 6 innings at an eye-watering strike rate of 193.46 with 28 sixes, proving himself to be the premier finisher in the tournament.
