Nicholas Pooran is currently one of the most talented players from the West Indies. His ability to effortlessly clear the roles is one of a kind. Besides, he is a fairly decent keeper as well. He is tailor-made for the shortest format of the game.
However, Pooran was released by Punjab ahead of the 2022 mega auction. It was Hyderabad that managed to acquire his services for a whopping amount of INR 10.75 crore. So far, he has scored 39 runs in three innings. Keeping his game aside, he seems to be enjoying his time at the Hyderabad camp.
Pooran was recently seen singing a Hindi song. Ahead of the Kane Williamson-led side's clash against Gujarat, the keeper-batter was showcasing his singing skills. He sang a song from Ranbir Kapoor's movie "Ajab Prem ki Gazab Kahani". The song's name is “Tu Jaane Na”, and it was Atif Aslam who sang it. Hyderabad took to social media to post a video of the same.
"West Indian idol #OrangeArmy #ReadyToRise" read the caption of their post. In the clip, Pooran can be seen sitting next to Shreyas Gopal. Not only was he singing, but he was seemingly singing the song with a lot of feel. Thus, it didn't take too long for the video to go viral. Fans loved his attempt to sing this lovely song.

In the meanwhile, the Windies batter has scored 0, 34 and 5* in the three games he has played in the 2022 edition so far. He would certainly like to make a vital contribution to his side's upcoming game against Gujarat. It is to be noted that the Hardik Pandya-led side have been in superb form.
They have won their first three games, and are yet to lose a match. As for the orange army, they have won one out of their first three games. However, they would be confident after a convincing win over the defending champions Chennai. Thus, their fixture against Gujarat promises to be an absolute cracker of a contest.
