Prabhakar took 96 wickets in Test cricket, 157 wickets in One Day International (ODIs), and over 385 first class wickets playing for Delhi.
He has also played for English County Durham.
Prabhakar is remembered for his bowling which was his strongest suit; using slower balls, out swingers and opening the bowling for Indian cricket team.
He was also a useful lower-order batsman and a defensive opener.
He has a world record of playing most matches as Opening Batsman and Opening Bowler in both Test and ODI matches.
Prabhakar quite regularly opened Indian batting order and the bowling.
He was one of the few players to do so consistently at international level.
He accomplished this 45 times in ODIs and 20 times in Tests, more than any other player in both formats.
He was a right-arm medium-pace bowler and a lower-order batsman, and also opened the innings a few times for the Indian cricket team until his retirement in 1996.
At the age of 32, Prabhakar played his last ODI against Sri Lanka in the 1996 Cricket World Cup in Delhi.
He struggled to bowl well in the match and had to bowl off-spin in the last two overs.
The crowd booed him off the ground.
After 1996 World Cup, he was not selected for Indian team's tour of England and took retirement.
Prabhakar has also served as the Delhi cricket team's bowling coach and as the head coach of the Rajasthan cricket team.
Prabhakar joined the Congress party and unsuccessfully contested election to the Indian Parliament from Delhi in 1996.

The couple lives in Delhi, with their two sons, Raahil Prabhakar and Manavansh Prabhakar, and Rohan Prabhakar, his son from his previous marriage to Sandhya.
In 1999, Prabhakar participated in an exposé of match-fixing by the Tehelka news group.
However, he was then charged by the BCCI with involvement in match fixing and subsequently banned from playing cricket for the Indian team.
In November 2011, he was sacked as the coach of Delhi for speaking against the management and the team in media.
In 2011, he was dismissed from his coaching role with the Delhi cricket team after he publicly criticized the players and selectors.

A Bollywood film Azhar released in 2016, directed by Tony D'Souza, was based on his teammate Mohammad Azharuddin's life and revolves around Match fixing scandals in late 90s and 2000.
According to the report of The Times of India, Prabhakar was unhappy due to his depiction in bad light in the film.
