Vriitya Aravind on becoming a Viper!
Episode 12
Tuesday, 28 October, 2025
Send us a textComing up we hear from one of the Vipers’ new boys, UAE wicketkeeper-batter Vriitya Aravind. Vriitya was the first player to be picked up at the recent auction and we hear all about his reaction to that, plus plenty more.Vriitya is no stranger to the DP World ILT20, having been on the books of two franchises already, spending time at both MI Emirates and the Dubai Capitals. For a 23 year-old, he’s also extremely experienced, having played more than 100 internationals for his country, including captaining the team in two One-Day Internationals at the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier in Zimbabwe in 2023. He’s a versatile player too, having batted in seven different positions for his country and he kept wicket for the UAE in the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia. Coming up Vriitya tells us all about those experiences, as well as providing us with some background on his life and cricketing career, plus, of course, his aspirations for both the DP World ILT20 and, further ahead, next year’s T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka, which the UAE have qualified for.
