Sanjay Bangar (Deccan Chargers)

Ad

A bits-and-pieces cricketer, Bangar was called up to the Indian team because of his breezy medium pace and solid technique. Bangar was Virender Sehwag’s opening partner for a short while in Tests, before falling out of favour in 2002.

He managed to play 12 matches in the IPL, representing Deccan Chargers in the first editions, before hanging his boots and pursuing a coaching career. He is now the batting coach of the Indian team, as well as the mentor of the Kings XI Punjab side.
