Timeline

1950

Mohinder Amarnath Bhardwaj (born 24 September 1950) is a former Indian cricketer, cricket analyst and actor.

He is the son of Lala Amarnath, the first post-independence captain of India.

Mohinder was born on 24 September 1950 in Patiala as the second eldest son of Lala Amarnath and Kailash Kumari.

His elder brother, Surinder is a former international cricketer while his younger brother Rajinder is a former first-class cricketer.

He also has two sisters, Kamala and Dolly.

1969

Mohinder made his debut against Australia at Chennai in December 1969,

as a quick-bowling all rounder.

At his peak he was a top order batsman who mainly played at No. 3 for India.

He was also handy with the ball, bowling swingers and cutters with great skill and control.

He had a unique run-up where he slowed down as he reached the bowling crease.

Behind his seemingly lethargic demeanor were nerves of steel.

Mohinder Amarnath played 69 Tests scoring 4,378 runs at a batting average of 42.50, with 11 hundreds and 24 fifties, and claimed 32 wickets at a bowling average of 55.68 apiece.

In 85 One Day Internationals, he scored 1,924 runs at an average of 30.53 and a highest score of 102 n.o. and claimed 46 wickets at 42.84 apiece.

Fiery fast bowlers Imran Khan of Pakistan and Malcolm Marshall of West Indies have praised his batsmanship, courage and ability to endure and master pain.

Imran further went on to state that Mohinder should have played non-stop for India right from his debut in 1969 to the time he retired.

(After his debut series in 1969, he had to wait until 1975 to make it into the team).

This series saw Imran Khan at his lethal best, supported by the canny Sarfraz Nawaz.

In match after match India crumbled against the fiery pace of Pakistan, losing the Second, third and fourth tests 3–0.

Imran Khan who took 40 wickets in the series was jointly awarded "Man of the Series" with Mohinder Amarnath.

The catastrophic series for India hastened the end of the career of master batsman Gundappa Viswanath.

Mohinder Amarnath was the sole saving grace for the Indian batting line-up for the series as a whole.

(An aside – Sunil Gavaskar carried his bat in one innings of the series. Sunil Gavaskar scored 434 runs ).

1982

In 1982–83 Mohinder played 11 Test matches against Pakistan (5) and the West Indies (6) and scored over 1000 runs in the two series.

In his book "Idols", Indian legend and compatriot Sunil Gavaskar described Mohinder Amarnath as the finest batsman in the world.

Mohinder made his first test century at Perth at the WACA (the fastest and bounciest wicket in the world) batting against Jeff Thomson.

He followed this test century with another 10 more against top class fast bowling.

Imran Khan regarded Mohinder so highly that in his book "All Round View" he went on record to say that in the 1982–83 season, Mohinder was quite simply the best batsman in the world.

1983

Mohinder was the vice captain of the Indian team that won the 1983 Cricket World Cup, where he was the player of the final.

Mohinder Amarnath is noted for his performance in the 1983 Cricket World Cup.

He was awarded "Man of the Match" in the final and semi-final, playing a star role in leading India to their first ever One Day International title and first World Cup win.

In the semi-final against England his accurate seam bowling fetched him the top-order wickets of David Gower and Mike Gatting.

He gave away only 27 runs in his 12 overs, for an average of a miserly 2.25 an over, the lowest among all Indian bowlers.

Returning to bat, he scored 46 runs to give India a solid foundation.

He was named the Man of the Match.

In the final, India batted first against the West Indies which arguably boasted the world's best bowling attack comprising Malcolm Marshall, Michael Holding, Andy Roberts and Joel Garner.

India did not fare well, with the entire team being dismissed for a paltry score of 183 in 54.4 overs, well short of the allotted 60 overs.

Amarnath's calm and composed batting against West Indian fast bowling gave the Indian innings some much needed stability.

1985

He was also a part of the Indian squad which won the 1985 World Championship of Cricket.

Mohinder is commonly mentioned by players and cricket pundits as the best Indian batsman against express pace.

2009

In 2009, he received the C. K. Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award, the highest honour Indian board can bestow on a former player.
