Praveen Kumar
The latest Indian cricketer to join the political bandwagon, Praveen Kumar is one of the few active cricketers to have associated themselves with politics. The 29-year old, who last represented the national side in 2012, was recently seen in action in the IPL, where he was fairly successful opening the bowling with Dhawal Kulkarni for the Gujarat Lions.
He joined hands with Akhilesh Yadav, Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh and the president of the Samajwadi Party, and might contest from Meerut in 2017.
Kumar has played six Tests and 68 ODIs for the Indian team, and was once a regular in the limited overs squads.
