Javagal Srinath ( pronunciation (help·info)), born 31 August 1969, is a former Indian cricketer and currently an ICC match referee. He is considered among India's finest fast bowlers, and is the first Indian fast bowler to take more than 300 wickets in One Day Internationals.

Srinath was a frontline fast bowler for the Indian cricket team until his retirement, and the second Indian pace bowler (after Kapil Dev) to take 200 Test wickets. After Dev, he led the Indian fast-bowling attack for over 12 years. Srinath is India's second-highest ODI wicket-taker with 315 (second to Anil Kumble's 337), and the first bowler to take 300 ODI wickets for India. He was the fastest 100-wicket taker in ODI.

He took 44 wickets in the 1992, 1996, 1999 and 2003 Cricket World Cups. Srinath is the joint highest wicket-taker for India in World Cup competition with Zaheer Khan, who took the same number of wickets in the 2003, 2007 and 2011 tournaments. Srinath is the fastest Indian bowler to take 200, 250 and 300 wickets in ODI, and the second-fastest Indian to reach 150 wickets. He is the leading wicket-taker at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, where he took 39 wickets. Srinath is one of eleven bowlers who took 300 wickets in one-day international cricket, and the only Indian fast bowler to take 300 wickets.

Srinath retired from international cricket after the 2003 World Cup in South Africa, where he struggled in the final against Australia. He was in eighth place in ICC Player Rankings for bowlers, with 701 points at his retirement. Srinath will be remembered as braveheart who changed the concept of fast bowling in India. Many bowlers like Kumble and Prasad, immensely benefitted from him bowling at other end as batsmen took more chances with them and giving their wickets in the process.Western media tries to portray him as medium pacer which is incorrect as he was genuine fast bowler with ferocious inswinging delivery.

Personal life

Srinath was born on 31 August 1969 in Mysore district, Karnataka, and was attracted to cricket at an early age. He attended Marimallappa High School and college in Mysore, and has a Bachelor of Engineering degree in instrumentation from Sri Jayachamarajendra College of Engineering (SJCE) in Mysore. Srinath spent his first two years of college at the Malnad College of Engineering in Hassan. He married Jyothsna in 1999; after their divorce, he married journalist Madhavi Patravali in 2008.

Domestic career

Srinath caught the eye of former Indian Test batsman Gundappa Viswanath, a selector for the state team, during a club match. He made his first-class debut for Karnataka against Hyderabad in 1989–90, taking a hat-trick in the first innings. Srinath followed this with wickets off successive balls in the second innings. He finished the season with 25 wickets in six matches, and took another 20 the following season. His second season involved a display of reverse swing against Maharashtra at Nehru Stadium in Pune, taking 7/93 to dismiss the home team for 311 in response to a Karnataka total of 638 on a good batting track.

Srinath took over 500 first-class wickets; playing for Karnataka, he took 96 at 24.06. He joined Gloucestershire in 1995 and took 87 wickets that season, including 9–76 against Glamorgan. Srinath also played English county cricket with Leicestershire and Durham.

International career

Debut years

After South Africa's tour of India in late 1996, Srinath traveled to South Africa (where speed guns were in use). This was the only series in his career where speed-gun readings were available before his career-threatening 1997 rotator-cuff injury. Srinath made his One Day International debut in the Wills Trophy at Sharjah in 1991. He is India's most prolific wicket-taker at the World Cup, with 44 wickets from 34 matches. Srinath is India's highest wicket-taker in ODI matches as a fast bowler, and the only Indian fast bo
