He is a right-handed batsman, and a leg-break bowler. He initially impressed by taking 20 wickets in 11 matches. This led to his debut for UP in all three formats. In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024, Nigam smashed 27 off just eight balls to take UP over the line against Andhra and into the quarter finals.
