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.
