Early life

Kambli hails from Indira Nagar, Kanjurmarg, a suburb of Mumbai.The small patch of land that served as his first cricket pitch was surrounded on all sides by high-rise buildings.The scoring system was dictated by the lack of space, and the higher a batsman hit the ball into the buildings the more runs he scored. It explains why Kambli was one of the best over-the-top hitters of spin bowling. Kambli accepted Christianity in September,2010 at the St Peter’s Church, Bandra.[5]

Kambli made two double-centuries and two centuries in seven tests. His footwork was dazzling against the spinners - he once smashed Shane Warne for 22 runs in an over - but he often got himself into a tangle against the short ball, and his flash to gully soon became a trademark. He made many comebacks into the one-day team, but played his last Test in 1995 before he had turned 24.He played his last Test match at the age of 24[9] and formally announced his retirement from first class cricket on 22 September 2011.[10] He played his last ODI in the year 2000.
