Aritra Dutta is a reliable top-order batsman for the Singapore national cricket team, known for his patient technique, strong temperament, and consistent performances in limited-overs cricket. Born on August 15, 1991, in India, Aritra later moved to Singapore and quickly established himself in the domestic cricket circuit before earning his place in the national squad. A right-handed batsman, Aritra specializes in building innings and anchoring the top order. He made his T20I debut in July 2019 against Qatar and has since featured regularly in Singapore’s international fixtures, including ICC T20 World Cup qualifiers and Cricket World Cup Challenge League matches. His breakthrough came during the 2019 Asia Region Qualifier, where he scored crucial runs at the top, including a well-crafted 56 against Malaysia under high pressure. What sets Aritra apart is his calm approach and ability to play long innings. Unlike many modern T20 players who rely heavily on power hitting, Aritra uses timing, placement, and a solid defensive technique to accumulate runs. His contributions have often laid the platform for middle-order hitters like Manpreet Singh and Janak Prakash to capitalize on. With several international appearances and key performances under his belt, Aritra Dutta remains a core part of Singapore’s batting unit and continues to play a pivotal role in the team’s journey through Associate cricket.
