Sunil Narine

Height: 5 Feet, 10 Inches DOB: 26 May 1988

Sunil Narine started his career as a mystery off spinner but later he turned out to be handy batsman in Powerplay overs. Narine got attention for the first time when he picked all 10 wickets in a trial match which led to a call up to the Trinidad & Tobago squad in January 2009. In 2011 he made his international debut against India in an ODI where he picked up two wickets at an excellent economy of 3.4. Narine first wicket in International cricket was none other than 'Run Machine' Virat Kohli. He is the trickiest bowler to hit in the shorter format of the game because of his excellent control over his line and length.
