Amit Mishra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Amit Mishra pronunciation  (born November 24, 1982 in Delhi) is an Indian cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and legbreak bowler.

Comparisons his critics have made with Shane Warne are by no means undeserved. A similar run-up, and bowl, along with a heroic Warne-style loss of weight made Mishra an attacking cricketer who bowled a praised leg and offbreak.

Mishra was initially called into the Indian squad for the Test against the West Indies in 2002, but was not given a chance to play. He was allowed to play, however, during the TVS Cup in 2003, which took place in Dhaka.
