Profile

Wisden overview
One of many in India's search for an allrounder in their one-day team, JP Yadav's first brush with international cricket lasted just two games. He was drafted in for his ability to belt the ball around and bowl a few overs of right-arm medium-pace, but he just didn't look the part in the ODIs against West Indies. He is a useful performer for Railways though, and has scored most of the runs as an opener. He missed his chance to be among the contenders for a place in India's World Cup squad but staked another claim with a fantastic allround performance in the 2004-05 domestic season where he topped the wicket-takers' list and was a talismanic figure for both Railways, who won the Ranji title, and Central Zone, who triumphed in the Duleep Trophy. Yadav's career with Railways was cut short when he joined the unauthorised ICL in 2007, but he later broke ties with the league and was granted amnesty by the BCCI in June 2009.
