MatchesManimaran Siddharth is an Indian slow left-arm orthodox bowler who represents Tamil Nadu in the domestic circuit. He is recognized for his accuracy during the powerplay overs and his ability to bowl a deceptive arm ball that naturally swings into right-handed batters.\r\n\r\nSiddharth holds a strong domestic T20 record, highlighted by a standout performance in the 2020-21 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy final where he claimed 4/20 to secure the title for Tamil Nadu and earn Player of the Match honors. He also holds the state record for the most 4-wicket hauls in T20 cricket. In the Indian Premier League (IPL), he was acquired by the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for ₹2.40 Crore ahead of the 2024 season. During his debut campaign, he notably secured Virat Kohli as his maiden IPL wicket. He was then re-acquired by LSG for ₹75 Lakh in IPL 2025 and has been retained ahead of the 2026 season.
