Amit Mishra Complete Bio & Career

Amit Mishra after some fine performances at the domestic level was drafted into the national team in the year 2002 when West Indies toured India. However, he didn’t get a single game to play in that series. After which, he got his next significant opportunity when he was picked in the India A team in 2007. He made that series count and once again was in selector’s radar.
 
Mishra during the first IPL auctions was bought by the IPL team Delhi Daredevils. After warming bench for initial matches when he got the opportunity he made that count and took a match-winning hat-trick against the Decca Chargers. With 14 wickets under his belt in the IPL and some fine domestic performances, he was included in the national side when Australia toured India in 2008.
 
Mishra got an opportunity when Anil Kumble injured himself. He made a memorable debut by picking up 5 wickets and became only the 6th Indian player to get a fifer on his debut match. After making a promising debut, he has been in and out of the national squad. He was considered as the successor of legendary Anil Kumble but couldn’t live up to his expectations. He thought is a different beast altogether when it comes to IPL. He is the only player in the history of the tournament who has taken hat-trick thrice.Since the fitness test has become mandatory to be a part of the national team, he hasn't been able to clear that and hence is banking on some great domestic performance to again win a berth in the national squad.
