 Profile

A freewheeling legspinning allrounder, Sairaj Bahutule provides balance and an attacking edge to any cricket team. From watching Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli tear him apart in a 664-run partnership in school cricket, he graduated to play alongside them for Mumbai. A fine run of performances, which culminated in a 13-wicket haul in the Irani Trophy, led him into the Indian team. But a brief string of one-dayers on subcontinental sleepers was damaging. He had a big legbreak, but almost no variations, and went back to work on his shortcomings. Three years later, Anil Kumble's extended injury allowed for a Test call-up against Australia, but since then he sunk back to merely being a contender. In 2005, after 15 years with Mumbai, Bahutule moved to Maharashtra for better pay among other reasons. He took 54 wickets at 28.22 in the three years with the side. In 2008 he moved back to Mumbai and was named in their probables for the season.

Rahul Bhattacharya (September 23, 2008)
