Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
His father, Devendra Uppal, a lawyer and a decent club cricketer has played a pivotal role in shaping Param's career. He identified his son's talent at a very tender age and provided him with all the required facilities to nurture his cricketing prowess.
Param, a gifted batsman, worked exceedingly hard to improve his game in his early teenage years. He balanced out the studies with his cricket practice pretty well and his hard work slowly started to fetch him results. He was named the junior cricketer of the year at the age of 14 and in 2018.
During the 2015 World Cup semifinal between Australia and India. Param supported Australia and his father was rooting for India. But things changed in a three years time when Param was selected to represent Australia in the 2018 under-19 team as his dad also switched sides to Australia. As things turned out, Australia faced India in the final and for Param, it surely would have been an emotional final. He scored 34 and picked up a wicket but that wasn't good enough for his team as India won the final in a comprehensive manner.
In this year's domestic season, Param has represented a star-studded New South Wales in a couple of matches. He hasn't done anything out of ordinary yet but he has shown enough promise in his career so far to earn opportunities at the first-class level. His next aim will be to score a truckload of runs for New South Wales and earn a place in Australia's national team.
