Career
editBefore taking up cricket professionally, Randhawa trained as a kabaddi player. From 2013, he played regional under-19 cricket for Bahawalpur, but began to focus fully on cricket after being spotted by former first-class cricketer Azhar Shafiq during a net session in Sindh in 2014.[2] He subsequently played Grade II cricket before making his first-class debut for Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited against Port Qasim Authority in the 2015–16 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy at the Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad.[4][2]
Randhawa played for Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited from 2015–16 to 2018–19 and later became part of Southern Punjab in Pakistan's restructured domestic system.[3] He was the joint-highest wicket-taker in the 2019–20 National T20 Cup and took 23 wickets in the 2019–20 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy second XI competition before being promoted to Southern Punjab's first XI squad.[2] He was named in Southern Punjab's squad for the 2022–23 Quaid-e-Azam Trophy,[5] and in October 2022 took 3 for 75 for Southern Punjab against Balochistan at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.[6]
Randhawa was part of Lahore Qalandars as an emerging player in PSL 4 but did not play a match.[2] He later joined Peshawar Zalmi during the 2020 Pakistan Super League playoffs after Hasan Ali was ruled out through injury.[2] In the eliminator against Lahore Qalandars at the National Stadium, Karachi, he hit a six from the second ball he faced and took the wicket of Ben Dunk, although Peshawar were beaten by five wickets.[7][2] He later played three matches for Dhaka Dominators in the Bangladesh Premier League during the 2022–23 season.[3]
In September 2024, Randhawa played for the Markhors in the Champions One-Day Cup. Against the Dolphins at the Iqbal Stadium, he took 3 for 28 and made 27 as the Markhors won by 92 runs.[8] In November 2024, he received his maiden call-up to the Pakistan Shaheens squad for a 50-over series against Sri Lanka A.[9] He was also named in a Pakistan Shaheens squad to play a warm-up match against Afghanistan before the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.[10]
Randhawa was signed by Multan Sultans ahead of the 2026 Pakistan Super League.[11][12] By the end of the 2026 PSL season, he had played six PSL matches, scoring 50 runs and taking four wickets.[3]
