LegaXy Signs Oman National Cricket Team Captain Vinayak Shukla to Its Athlete Roster

The Kanpur-born wicketkeeper-batter signs with LegaXy weeks after taking over as Oman's skipper

Gurugram, July 2026 – LegaXy has signed Vinayak Shukla, the newly appointed captain of Oman’s men’s cricket team, to its athlete roster.

Shukla took charge of the national side earlier this month, succeeding Jatinder Singh at a moment that matters. Oman are in the closing stretch of their ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 campaign, with the ACC Men’s Premier Cup also on the calendar and a place at the 2027 World Cup still very much in play.

He has been building towards this since his international debut in December 2024. In the twenty months since, he has scored 447 runs in 22 T20Is and 312 in 14 ODIs, with a maiden fifty of 52 not out along the way. What stands out is not just the numbers but the route he took to get here – domestic cricket in India, a move to Oman in 2021, club and domestic sides, the Oman A team, and now the captaincy.

“Vinayak has earned every bit of this,” said Aneesh Gautam, Co-Founder and Director of Talent at LegaXy. “He moved countries, worked his way up through the system, and two years after his debut he is leading the side. That tells you a lot about the player and even more about the person. We are glad to be alongside him for what comes next.”

Vinayak Shukla said the timing felt right. “Captaining Oman is the biggest thing that has happened in my career. There is a lot ahead over the next year and having the right people around me matters. I am glad LegaXy is part of that.”

The signing adds to a roster LegaXy continues to grow across international and domestic cricket.
