Who Is Ajeet Singh Dale, Indian-Origin Medium-Pacer To Play For England Lions?
Last Updated: Ajeet Singh Dale, Gloucestershire medium-pacer, is all set to play for England Lions against India A. Star Gloucestershire medium-pacer Ajeet Singh Dale is all set to take the field for the England Lions when they take on India A in an all-important clash for the two sides, with quite a few eyebrows being raised as to who Ajeet is and how the 24-year-old's career has panned out till now. Born in July 2000 in Berkshire, Ajeet is a right-arm medium-pacer and right-handed batter, known for his contributions in the former role. Ajeet started his professional career with Hampshire, making his first-class debut in 2020 during the Bob Willis Trophy. He picked three wickets on debut against Sussex, including that of England allrounder Ollie Robinson. He bagged four wickets in two matches that season, at an average of 18.25. A new career-best of 7-110 for Ajeet Singh Dale, with celebrations to match — Rothesay County Championship (@CountyChamp) May 17, 2025 Ajeet signed with Gloucestershire in 2022 on a multi-year deal, with 2023 proving to be a breakout year for him. He made his T20 debut against Sri Lanka Cricket Development XI but conceded 44 runs in his three overs in that game. Ajeet made his List A debut in the Royal London One-Day Cup and bowled an economic spell of 4-0-24-0 against Surrey. It was in the 2023 season that Ajeet achieved his career-best bowling figures of 6/41 against Worcestershire. Bowling with express pace, Ajeet's talents as a fast bowler have earned him recognition with the Lions as well, in which he showed his potential on the broader stage, and is now set to play against India A. Ajeet is coming off a brilliant performance in the recent County Championship match against Kent. He picked up nine wickets in that game earlier this month, seven coming in one innings. He has picked 22 wickets in five matches in the tournament at an economy of 3.45. Meanwhile, a clutch of frontline Indian Test players, including opener Yashasvi Jaiswal and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy, will be eager to acclimatise to English conditions during India A's first four-day unofficial Test against the England Lions. Apart from Jaiswal and Nitish, the India A team has Abhimanyu Easwaran, Dhruv Jurel, Karun Nair, pacers Akash Deep and Shardul Thakur.

Old train coach transformed into fully-equipped bachelor pad; video goes viral
You've probably seen homes made of stone, scrap, or even built with 3D printers—but now, a train coach turned into a fully livable home is stealing the spotlight. Yes, an old Indian Railway coach has been creatively repurposed into a full-fledged house, and the transformation video has gone viral online. The clip, shared on Instagram by Ajeet Singh (@ opens with him standing outside what looks like an abandoned train coach. He walks in, chuckling, and right at the entrance, there are several large 10-litre water bottles stacked neatly. Inside, the usual sleeper berths have been replaced by proper beds, complete with mattresses, pillows, bedsheets, and blankets. You can hear Singh in the background saying, 'Sofa wofa sab rakh rakha hai (There's sofa as well),' clearly impressed by the cozy setup. Ajeet also said, 'Poora ghar hai (This is entirely home).' As he continues filming, more details of the unique home emerge—there are wall hangers, ceiling fans, coolers, ACs, curtains, rugs, proper lighting, and even cupboards. It's not just a temporary arrangement; it genuinely feels like someone's full-time residence. Watch the viral video: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ajeet Singh (@ In another clip, Ajeet is seen hanging out with the men who live there. The coach also has a television, several chairs, and quite a few water coolers–making it feel more like a hostel or shared apartment than an old train. The video has racked up over a million views, and the comments are just as entertaining. One user said, 'Yaar yaha kam karne ke liye kya krna hoga (what would one need to do to work here).' Another user wrote, 'Kitne Tejaswi log hai kon hai yeh log kaha se ate hai aise log (How brilliant these people are – who are they, and where do such people even come from?)' Others praised the idea, calling it a smart reuse of an old compartment. One comment said, 'Train become boys hostel.'
