Indian cricketer Deepak Hooda has represented the national cricket team in 8 ODIs, 14 T20Is. He has scored 141 runs in the 50-over format but is yet to make a good impression in this particular format. 

On the other hand, he has been pretty decent in the shortest format of the game, scoring 293 runs at an average of 32.5. He smashed one century to his name against the Ireland cricket team.

As far as his IPL career is concerned, he has played as many as 95 games in the tournament. He aggregated as much as 1236 runs at an average of 20.3 including seven half-centuries to his name.

On the contrary, he has been quite handy in terms of the ball as well. He has accounted for three dismissals in six innings in One-Day Internationals whereas he has taken five wickets in 5 innings in Twenty20 Internationals.
