The Shaktawat surname is associated with a Rajput clan tracing its origins to Mewar in present-day Rajasthan. Cricketers bearing the name have generally been associated with cricket in northern and western India, where the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) administers the principal first-class, List A and Twenty20 competitions.
Indian domestic cricket is organised around long-running tournaments such as the Ranji Trophy (first-class), the Vijay Hazare Trophy (List A) and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (Twenty20). Players from Rajasthan typically progress through the state's age-group sides and the Rajasthan cricket team before becoming eligible for higher honours.
Domestic cricketers form the foundation of the Indian cricketing pipeline, with state-level performances feeding selection for India A, the Indian Premier League and ultimately the national side. Coverage of such cricketers in reference databases helps preserve statistical and biographical records of the country's wider cricketing community beyond its international stars.
