Laxmi Shukla - India - Batting Allrounder

Born in Howrah, Bengal, Laxmi Ratan Shukla is a handy all-rounder, who made his ODI debut at a tender age of 17 against Sri Lanka in 1998. However, he played just two ODIs after that and was never considered for national duty again. He was handed the India cap after an impressive debut season in 1997/98. The Bengal ranji side though, used his services very well, with both bat and ball and he has been one of their key players since then.

He is one of the few players with a double of 5000 runs and 150 wickets in Ranji Trophy arena.

He also played for the Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL before moving on to the Delhi Daredevils in 2014.

With age not on his side, a comeback into the Indian squad is almost ruled out while his domestic career can prolong for a few more years.
