HOME > PLAYERS > Murali Kartik Murali Kartik Born September 11, 1976 Major Teams India, Railways Known As Murali Kartik Batting Style Left Hand Bat Bowling Style Slow Left Arm Orthodox Test Debut 1999/00 against South Africa at Mumbai ODI Debut 2001/02 against Zimbabwe at Hyderabad Profile Murali Kartik from an ideal action, delivers the ball with a nice loop. The ball comes down from a tantalising arc and very soon the batsman is in trouble, not knowing whether to play forward or back, unaware of what exactly the ball will do after pitching. For Kartik has the knack of pitching the ball on a length which is inconvenient for the batsman. Moreover the teasing flight and considerable bounce and turn he achieves causes enough problems. He is yet to make his ODI debut.
