Wriddhiman Saha

Born: 24 October 1984

He is an Indian international cricketer who plays Test matches for the Indian national team and Bengal in domestic cricket.
He is also the first cricketer to score a century in an Indian Premier League final.
He plays for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League.
In 2017, he became the first Indian wicket-keeper to score centuries in a home as well as outside Asia.
He made his Test debut in February 2010, as a specialist batsman.
When he got a permanent place in the Indian Test XI as a wicket-keeper, there were arguments about his place in the backdrop of him replacing the long-serving MS Dhoni, who had scored nearly 5000 runs in Test cricket at an average nearly 40.
He scored his maiden Test century at St. Lucia on the tour of the Caribbean; on that occasion, India, having been put in to bat, were at 126/5. Saha combined with Ashwin, had a long partnership.
India went on to win the Test, He has since added two more centuries and his batting average has more than doubled.
His second hundred came when India was against Bangladesh.
He has played 23 Tests as India’s designated wicket-keeper, and his numbers on the batting front compare favorably to some of India’s previous wicket-keepers.
In terms of runs, only Farokh Engineer (who also opened the innings), MS Dhoni and Nayan Mongia had scored more.
