Profile

Aashish Kapoor was a handy offspinner, who when needed, also opened the batting in domestic cricket. Kapoor was a part of India's 1996 World Cup squad that reached the semi-final. Unfortunately, after India lost in the semi-final against Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens, he was largely ignored by the national selectors.

If we look back at Kapoor's career, he came through the ranks and made his debut for Tamil Nadu in 1989-90. Despite having a sterling season in domestic cricket for Tamil Nadu in 1990-91, he wasn't exactly a regular member of the side. It was only after he moved over to Punjab during the 1993-94 season, that the selectors began to take notice of his skills.

Right arm Offbreak

The right arm off-spinning allrounder from the Punjab had a promising introduction to one-day cricket, and was a member of the 1996 World Cup squad. In the aftermath of the loss to Sri Lanka, he was discarded, and despite consistent strong performances on domestic cricket, has mysteriously failed to catch the selector's eye subsequently. Schooled in the south, he moved to the Punjab after failing to break into a strong Tamil Nadu line-up. As an offspinner he flights the ball well, and enjoys variation. He is always economical, and hard to get away. He is a solid bat, usually at No. 7, but has been known to open. In 1998-99, he moved from Punjab to Rajasthan, where he captained the team with some success. Se
