Praveen Kumar honed his reputation as a man of many parts: A fast bowler with the ability to toil away on unresponsive Indian wickets who can double up as a carefree hitter down the order and as a surprise opener.

Kumar was key to UP winning the title in his first Ranji season, taking 41 wickets and scoring 368 runs.
