His club cricket has been played in Miami, for teams in the South Florida Cricket Alliance and the Florida Southeast Cricket League.[1] In November 2012, Surujbally made his international debut for the U.S. in the annual Auty Cup series against Canada.[2] He was retained in the side for the 2013 Americas Twenty20 Championship the following year, and featured in five of a possible eight matches, with a best of 44 against Suriname.[3] Surujbally also featured in the 2013 Auty Cup series,[4] but was not again selected in a national squad until 22015, when he replaced Steven Taylor (a late withdrawal) in the squad for the 2015 World Twenty20 Qualifier in Ireland and Scotland.[5] He went on to make his full Twenty20 debut in the third match of the tournament, against Namibia.[6]
