Every Indian fan remembers Vinod Kambli walking back to the Eden Gardens pavilion in tears when Sri Lanka were declared the winners in the semis of the 1996 World Cup. He was a left-handed middle-order batsman known for his attacking style. Even though he was a quality player, he was unlucky to have retired at a very young age. He represented India in the 1992 and the 1996 World Cups. He played his last international game in 2000 after which he has been seen as a cricket analyst and a commentator on various TV channels.

If Kapil Dev led the Indian bowling in the 80s, it was Javagal Srinath who was the frontline pacer for India in the 90s and the early 2000s. In an amazing career, he captured 551 wickets across formats. He took part in four World Cups contributing to the team’s success. After retiring from all forms of cricket, he has assumed various positions in ICC. He is currently an ICC match referee. He was also the secretary of the Karnataka State Cricket Association.
