Profile
Srinath was the spearhead of the Indian attack for many years. Bowling with a smooth action, the lanky fast bowler has been able to extract pace and bounce from even docile wickets. Perhaps the finest tribute to his pace bowling skills is the fact that a large percentage of his impressive bag of international wickets have been taken on unfriendly tracks at home. Srinath's overall performance is all the more creditworthy for it was only after Kapil Dev retired in 1994-95 that he became the spearhead of the Indian attack. Srinath was a handy batsman also and can hit big hits. Srinath has now announced his retirement from all forms of cricket.
