He is a member of India's national basketball team since 2014. As of 2018, he serves as team captain[2] of India's national basketball team.[3][4]

Pari already made a name for himself as a youth player. He captained Tamil Nadu's official state lineups for the u-13, u-16 and u-18 (junior) and senior men level.[5]

During the 2013 NBA All-Star Game, Akila Pari was selected to play at the Sprite Uncontainable Game, where he was coached by Omri Casspi and Serge Ibaka.[6]

As of 2018, he has been labelled as one of India's best basketball players[7] because of his passing and ball handling skills, and because of complicated engagement rules, missed a crucial playoff game against Lebanon, a game which India lost[8] because of his absence.[9]
