"Abey Kuruvilla, 6'6"": Perhaps the tallest player to represent India, Kuruvilla was not express pace despite his humungous size. He swung the ball somewhat and worked hard on his variations. He debuted for India on the 1996-97 West Indies tour and took 5 for 68 in the second innings of the Barbados Test. Kuruvilla played just five more Tests after that, and then fell out and was never considered to be part of the national scheme of things. He retired from First Class cricket after the 1999-2000 Ranji Trophy final against Hyderabad."
