Tyagi hails from Uttar Pradesh and progressed through the state's age-group cricket pathway before being selected into the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) junior set-up. His pace bowling earned him a place in India's preparatory squads for international youth tournaments.
Tyagi represents Uttar Pradesh in the domestic circuit, appearing in tournaments organised by the BCCI such as the Ranji Trophy, the Vijay Hazare Trophy and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
He was part of the India Under-19 squad for the ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup, where he was used as a frontline pace option. The exposure on the youth international stage helped raise his profile within the senior domestic system and the franchise circuit.
Tyagi was signed by the Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League. He has been used primarily in the powerplay and at the death, with his role focused on hard-length pace bowling and yorkers in the closing overs.
Tyagi is regarded as part of a generation of young Indian fast bowlers who emerged through the under-19 pipeline and the IPL. His consistent pace and ability to bowl an attacking length in white-ball cricket have made him a notable figure in India's deep pool of seam-bowling options.
