He was bought by Rising Pune Supergiant at his base price of Rs 10 lakhs in 2017. The skipper, Steve Smith asked him to open the innings for his team during the 10th edition of the IPL season.

Tripathi did not fail to impress his skipper as he accumulated 391 runs in 14 innings at a staggering strike-rate of 146.44 with the best knock of 93 off 52 deliveries against Kolkata Knight Riders. He was definitely more than just value for money for his franchise owners.
