A member of India’s 1996 World Cup squad, he was a reliable off-spinning all-rounder capable of batting at No. 7 and occasionally opening the innings.

After the semi-final defeat to Sri Lanka, he was dropped and, despite consistently strong domestic performances, somehow never managed to regain the selector’s attention.

Can you recall this player ? 🤔

Hrishikesh Kanitkar

[Life between overs @OversLife]

This one is for the OG Cricket fans!! 👇

Under the fading lights, he hit the memorable boundary and got India over the line in the final vs Pakistan. 🇵🇰

This one boundary made sure that the hard work and courage shown by Ganguly, Robin Singh and Sachin didn’t go to waste.

Any idea who this Cricketer is? 🤔

[Avinash Iyer @awesomeavee]

Isn’t that Steve Waugh?

Once in a Test at Headingley, an England wicketkeeper took a quick single off Vanburn Holder.

Bernard Julien fielded at extra cover and overthrew the keeper. The ball ran away, and seven runs were scored off that one delivery, still one of the strangest entries in a Test scoresheet.

The same gloveman stood up to the stumps for a left-arm spinner who cut the ball off a length, and almost never missed. Collar turned up, sleeves rolled down, hands warmed in hot water before he walked out.

Peers once said they could not remember him dropping a chance.

Can you Name this legendary player?

Guess the player name hiding behind the yellow mark .🤔

The Iconic Score board says 610/3 declared. Jaffer 138 retired ill, Dravid 129, Tendulkar 122 not out, Ganguly 15, Dhoni 51 not out.

The blank Yellow line: 129, caught Bashar, bowled Mortaza.

No cheating, No AI , No Googling! Only cricketing Brain 🧠

Mark Greatbatch

In 1992, a left-handed Kiwi opener walked out and treated the new ball like it owed him runs.

While others nudged and blocked, he cleared the ropes from the first over.

That World Cup quietly rewrote how openers were allowed to bat.

Can you guess him ? 🤔

Not every India cap becomes a household name.

Some just arrive, do the job, and leave a quiet mark.

From Amritsar. Off-spin. Turban. Quiet shoulders.

November 2000, Nagpur.
India hadn’t used a specialist off-spinner for months.

A 21-year-old walks in against Zimbabwe and takes 6 wickets on Test debut.
2/70 and 4/136. Match figures 6/206.
The pitch was dry. The ball turned. He didn’t celebrate like a star. He just kept bowling.

3 Tests. 10 wickets.
5 ODIs. 3 wickets.
That was the international chapter.

The real story was domestic:
92 first-class matches. 314 wickets.
18 five-wicket hauls.
Two ten-wicket matches.
Best 8/180.

India’s first ever ODI win against the mighty West Indies.

Gavaskar 90. Then this explosion:
72 off 38 balls. 7 fours. 3 sixes. Strike rate 189.
Bowled by Andy Roberts.

The name is hidden. Who played that innings?
