Maninder Singh pronunciation  (b. June 13, 1965, Pune, India) is a former international cricket player who represented India in 35 Test matches and 59 one day internationals. With his slow left-arm orthodox spin, Maninder was considered as a heir to Bishan Singh Bedi, who then held the record as India's leading spinner in terms of wickets. However, he failed to live up to the promise he held. He is now mostly remembered for his dismisssal in the Madras test resulting in a tie against Australia in 1986-87 series.Though now retired from active cricket, Maninder is still in the scene as a cricket commentator.
