He was selected by Rajasthan Royals for the 2009 season of Indian Premier League.[2] This made him the second Kerala Ranji player to be selected by an IPL franchise, after Sreesanth, who was selected by Kings XI Punjab in the 2008 season. Raiphi also represented India Under 19 team

Gomez represented Kochi Tuskers Kerala in IPL Season 4. He signed the contract for ₹3 million (US$42,000).[3] In the home match against the Kolkata Knight Riders, he picked up the wickets of Jacques Kallis and captain Gautam Gambhir in successive deliveries, thereby turning the course of the game in favor of the Tuskers. In 2011, KTK was terminated by BCCI. After KTK's termination, he is selected to play for Pune Warriors India in the 5th edition of IPL.

In August 2018, he was one among the 13 players fined by the Association, when the players had raised their concerns about Kerala's Cricket Team captain, Sachin Baby.[4]
