Abey Kuruvilla pronunciation , born August 4, 1968 was an Indian pace bowler in the mid 1990s and is widely regarded as one of the missed gems on Indian cricket.
Kuruvilla stood a towering 6 ft 6 inches tall and coupled with his broad frame cut an imposing figure on the field.
Kuruvilla lead the pace attack on the tour of the West Indies in 1997, when Javagal Srinath was sidelined with a rotator cuff injury. While he returned adequate figures from that tour, and bowled decently in subsequent Test matches on flatter pitches, he was dropped from the team.
He retired from all cricket in 2000, and has taken up coaching.
