Sadagopan Ramesh broke into international cricket with an impressive and self assured debut against Pakistan. He played the pace of Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Shoaib Akthar and the spin of Saqlain Mushtaq and Mushtaq Ahmed with equal felicity, ran up a series of consistent scores including a couple of hundreds and suddenly India had unearthed a world class opening batsman. An elegant southpaw with big match temprement, Ramesh came into an Indian side in desperate need of an opener and filled that slot like he was born to it.

While so many talented players have failed to live up to their potential due to lack of mental toughness, Ramesh is blessed with a mind like ice and positively thrives in big match pressure situations

Cynics and self styled cricketing pundits point to his faulty footwork and awry technique. Then there were the detractors who said he would never get runs away from the sub continent and he would come up a cropper against the Australian pace bowlers on the faster and bouncier pitches `Down Under.' Taking up the challenge, Ramesh proved that he could get runs in any conditions. What matters at the end of each day, is the runs on the board and Ramesh has consistently proved his ability, to put them there.

Currently out of the Indian side, more to misfortune than any fault of his, Ramesh is available for product endorsements and personal appearances, at a price that is a fifth of what he will command, once he fights his way back to the Indian 11.

What this means, is that a commercial association with Ramesh now makes eminent business sense. To take things further, please get in touch with us using the "contact us" button provided at the top of this page.
