Harshal Patel is a right-arm medium bowler and a right-handed player, who played in the Under-19 Vinoo Mankad Trophy for Gujarat in 2008-09, capturing 23 wickets in seven matches of the season.

Patel has modeled himself around Glenn McGrath whom he admires for his consistent bowling. He was amongst three players who bagged a contract with Mumbai in Indian T20 league, in 2011 but did not manage to get a game.

His successful domestic trophy season earned him a contract with Bangalore for the fifth edition of the IPL in 2012 and did well enough to be bought back by the same team in 2014.
