Munaf Patel began his career as a fast bowler but reduced his pace in an effort to gain more control.
Another member of the Indian attack who was regularly hampered by injuries, Patel played 13 Tests, 70 ODIs and 3 T20Is.
He was a late call-up to India’s 2011 World Cup squad and was a key performer in their victory, taking 11 wickets in eight games and impressing the coaching staff with his results.
