Profile                   :A very wristy player from the state of Hyderabad,he is the most successful of all Indian captains.His record as a captain has no parallels in the annals of Indian Cricket.He is considered by many as a lucky captain .His recent form does not do justice to his capability as one of the best players.This has created a lot of controversy.His highpoints came during the England tour of  India and in 1998 when Tendulkar was in blazing form.Some of the controversial episodes like the  Sidhu episode only alienated him from his teammates.He has made a sensational comeback into the Indian team recently.The match-fixing scandal is the final nail in the coffin of this once great cricketer
