Jersey number 66 - Sanjay Bangar in IPL 2008

Sanjay Bangar is perhaps one of the most underrated players in the history of Indian cricket. The medium-pace bowling all-rounder played his only IPL season for the Deccan Chargers in 2008. He represented the Deccan Chargers in 11 matches but could not contribute much to the team's cause.

Bangar aggregated a mere 47 runs in 7 innings with a highest score of 17* coming versus Royal Challengers Bangalore. His batting average was just below 8. With the ball, he scalped 4 wickets in 25 overs and had an average of 54.75. His best bowling figures were 2/34.

The Maharashtra-born all-rounder never played in the Indian Premier League after that year but he has been a part of the coaching staff of multiple IPL franchises like Kochi Tuskers Kerala and Kings XI Punjab.

Currently, Sanjay Bangar is the batting coach of the senior Indian cricket team.
