India’s Ajay Ratra is a star cricketer. On December 13, 1981, he was born in Faridabad, Haryana. He is representative of the large group of Indian cricketers who began playing the sport at an early age. The right-handed batter is his specialty. When he was chosen to attend the National Academy of Cricket in Bangalore back in the year 2000, he received first-rate instruction. By doing so, he was exposed to cricket on a wider scale, and his subsequent interest propelled him to the highest level of international competition. Many archives have had his address as their primary contact since the beginning.
In 2002, he played in an ODI match for his country against England. In 2002, when playing for the West Indies, he kept wicket during one of their innings. With his 115 runs, he established himself as the sport’s youngest wicketkeeper to score a century in a test match. In the years that followed, his cricket career achieved numerous landmarks.
In addition to that, he is only the second Indian wicketkeeper to score a century in tests played outside of India. Unfortunately, his success on the international cricket stage did not last long. Parthiv Patel, one of India’s youngest wicketkeepers, took over for Ajay Ratra in ODIs when Ratra suffered an injury in 2002, while Rahul Dravid, the Indian cricket team’s “wall,” took over for Ajay Ratra in test matches. But he tried to keep it up once again. He was a cricket star in his hometown, and he represented multiple states.
