Jasdeep "Jessy" Singh (born February 10, 1993) is an American cricketer who made his debut for the U.S. national side in May 2015. He is a right-arm medium-pace bowler who bats right-handed.[1]
Born in Queens, New York, Singh's domestic cricket has been played in several different states, with appearances for a Cricket League of New Jersey representative side (for which he took a hat-trick against Minnesota in 2012),[2] and also for clubs in New York City.[3][4] At the 2014 National Championships in Florida, which was played between eight regional sides, he played for the Central West Region team, which primarily draws its players from leagues in Texas.[5]
Singh was called into the national squad in April 2015, for the 2015 Americas Twenty20 Championship the following month. He was one of only four American-born players in the team, the others being Akeem Dodson, Hammad Shahid, and Steven Taylor.[6] However, at the tournament he featured in only one match,[7] taking 0/15 opening the bowling with Muhammad Ghous.[8] Singh was retained in the U.S. squad for the 2015 World Twenty20 Qualifier in Ireland and Scotland, and went on to make his Twenty20 debut in the opening match of the tournament against Nepal.[9]
