MatchesBorn in Madison, Wisconsin, USA, Aman Rao Perala grew up in Hyderabad and became a part of the cricketing culture in India. The 21-year-old is known to be an aggressive right-handed opening batter, who focuses on maximising impact in the powerplay. The young right-handed opener etched his name into the record books by smashing an unbeaten 200 off 154 balls against a powerhouse Bengal attack during the 2025–26 Vijay Hazare Trophy, becoming the first Hyderabad batter to hit a List A double-century. Aman had already signaled his arrival during the 2025–26 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where he most famously took down Shardul Thakur for 24 runs in a single over. More importantly, he ended the tournament with 234 runs at a strike rate of above 160. Rajasthan Royals signed him for INR 30 lakh ahead of TATA IPL 2026.
