HOME > PLAYERS > Ajit Agarkar Ajit Agarkar Born December 4, 1977 Major Teams Mumbai, India Known As Ajit Agarkar Batting Style Right Hand Bat Bowling Style Right Arm Fast Medium Test Debut 1998/99 against Zimbabawe at Harare ODI Debut 1997/98 against Australia at Kochi Profile Agarkar is a good prospect for India, as he has all that requires to be a good all rounder. A nippy medium pacer, capable of moving the ball both ways and a more than useful late order attacking batsman, Ajit Agarkar was hailed as the best thing to happen to Indian cricket for a long time. Agarkar became fastest 50-wicket taker in the one-day internationals. He broke the record held by Dennis Lillee. Plagued by injuries, Agarkar has always been struggling to hold his place in the side. He had a poor World Cup tournament.
