Who is Aman Hakim Khan?
Aman Khan’s journey in cricket began at a young age after watching his father, who played Under-19 cricket for Mumbai. He played a lot of age-group cricket alongside Shreyas Iyer, his Kolkata Knight Riders skipper. Pravin Amre, who also coached Shreyas Iyer, was his coach from the age of 11. Aman’s dedication and hard work helped him earn a spot in the KKR squad in the IPL 2021 season. He made his IPL debut for KKR last season.
