Shiv Sunder Das pronunciation , born November 5, 1977, is an Indian cricketer who plays as an opening batsman.
Das was selected in 2000 for the first intake of the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore.[1] He proceeded to make his Test debut later that year.
Considered the answer to India's search for a genuine Test opener, Das began his Test career well. After going through the five Test tour of the West Indies in 2002 without making a single fifty, he was dropped from the Test XI in the subsequent tour of England, and has not played for India since. Das represented India in 23 Test matches and scored 1326 runs at an average of 38.91, hitting two centuries - both of them against Zimbabwe, at Nagpur. He was awarded the Man of the series award during India's tour to Zimbabwe in 2001. Das hit 250 in a first class match against Essex during India's tour to England in 2002. Das captains Orissa cricket team in domestic competitions.
