Picked by Gujarat Lions, Chirag Suri was one of the few promising talents from an Associate nation during the 2017 edition of Indian Premier League. Looking at his passion for cricket and his performances at the junior level many of Suri's friends had anticipated that he'll join the Indian cricket team. However, having brought up in Dubai, Suri decided to join the Emirati cricket team. At the age of 22, Chirag made his first-class debut against Namibia; a match in which he was dismissed for a duck in the first innings of the match. But in the second innings of the same match, he scored a handy 40-odd. A few months later, the young bloke made his ODI debut against Windies during 2018 Cricket World Cup Qualifier.
