Remember @Lbalaji55 knocking over Yasir Hameed with a beauty.My best memory of his was from the QF of the Ranji trophy against Bengal.

Slightly goofy, slightly unpredictable but always wholehearted. Wish you well in retirement, Balaji #Balajizaradheerechalo was hilarious!

Well done Bala on a wonderful career.He's arguably the best fast bowler TamilNadu has ever had and a brilliant career for team India as well
