Utpal Chatterjee All 3 Odi wickets | Debut at age 30
#indiancricket #birthday
Perhaps not unexpectedly, Utpal Chatterjee's selection at the age of 30 for his first ODI came in for a lot of criticism. His detractors said the place could have gone to a much younger man while others openly expressed doubts whether he was deserving of a place in the national side. But the left-arm bowler, who is a fairly big turner of the ball in helpful conditions and can be steady when conditions favour the batsman, was determined to make his presence felt. He started off well by taking 1 for 28 off ten overs against Bangladesh in the Asia Cup match at Sharjah. Against sterner opposition, Chatterjee proved his mettle by taking 2 for 35 off eight overs against Pakistan, his victims being Moin Khan and Ghulam Ali. But he was harshly treated by the New Zealand batsmen in the first ODI the visitors played the following season, conceding 54 runs off 8.5 overs and was not considered again. However he continued to play with much success for Bengal and touched peak form in the 1999-2000 season when he took 52 wickets in the Ranji Trophy, setting a new Bengal record and in the process inching towards the 300 wicket mark in the competition. He was appointed as Bengal coach for the 2008-09 season.

Ranji trophy legend!! 90s fans remember him..
Utpal Chatterjee is an unsung hero who was again an victim of dirty cricket politics. He is a very down to earth person and still lives just a very normal live like an ordinary man. 🙏

David da, one of my favorite cricketer when I was growing up. Never met him in life, but he was my hero.
Along with Anil Kumble, if he played T20 ckt today he would have been a rockstar. He was very economical and handy with the bat as well. Much like Axar or Jaddu of present era...it's due to regional politics of Indian ckt that a gem like him didn't have much chances.

@@sagnikchaudhuri4142 Sourav Ganguly got the chance because of Jagmohan Dalmiya's backing, it's a different issue that he capitalised his chances only to cement his place in the team. In 1991 he got the chance on merit and form. As Bengal won Ranji trophy the previous season and Sourav was among the principal contributors for Bengal to win the prestigious domestic tourney. But that time Azhar played dirty politics to sideline him for 4 years after playing just one game for India in Australia. In 1996 in England Sourav didn't have that much success in domestic season so that he could make the Indian team. But that time he has the backing of Jagmohan Dalmiya, the all in all of BCCI that time. Know the facts first, then comment.

@@soumikchatterjee1827you are 💯 correct. Even after having so much backing, betting master azhar had tried his level best in the late 90s to spoil Dada's career. I remember even after having splendid numbers he was rarely allowed to bowl. It took someone like Dada to crush betting master azhar and come out victorious. Compared to that Utpal Chatterjee had little or no chance in front of that devil.
He had been consistently top wicket taker in Ranji trophy for couple of years(4-5 years) then only the notorious Mumbai lobby allowed him to play for the national squad at his 30, as if the selection was his consolation prize. First Sourav Ganguly then IPL liberate Indian cricket talents, back then some moron Dungarpur had to decide who will play for India or who will not.
Thank you so so much for sharing this video. I searched these moments in KZread for many years.

Wow beautiful old cricket
On the Kolkata maidan...he was not Utpal Chatterjee...he was David
Bengal cricket was always looked down upoon by the national selectors
A very fine spinner, a handy batsman and a good fielder; he was one of the hardest working and disciplined cricketers.Its a shame that he was neglected in favour of much lower quality cricketers. Utpal Chatterjee being deprived was not his loss alone, it was Indian cricket's loss.
Partha Sarathi Bhattacharya Utpal Chatterjee is very unlucky cricketer in his time he was the best left arm spinner but badly victimized bcoz of politics led by Azharuddin
He is our neighbour.
Amader “David da” r career ta puro Azaharuddin sesh kore dilo😢
Just look at the difference between sachin & kambli, missing an easy catch is fun for kambli but sachin took it with the sun on his eyes.

One of the finest allrounder at that time. But his international carrier had been destroyed by our selectors alongwith Azharuddin and Ajit Wadekar. Bengal lobby was very soft at that point of time.
He was far far better than Venkatpathy Raju...but Azhar's politics finished his career...

As was the case of Subrata Banerjee -- 1 innings, he gets only 4 overs to bowl, in the next innings, none. Dropped in the next test.
How smooth was his action
Anybody who followed domestic cricket back then knows Utpal Chatterjee was far better than Venkatapathy Raju on any surface. But, Raju might have some unholy alliance with the then captain Azhar. After Azhar came Sachin and India even saw low grade Nilesh Kulkarni. By the time Saurav became the captain Utpal Chatterjee was already aged. India could've got another match winner along with Kumble. India always missed the second spinner along with him.
90s kid will be remember him and even kanwaljit singh never got a chance to prove ,and india left arm bowlers are all time victims . Don Mulla Azhar prefered Raju and over him ,sady state politics also plays a role ,
His is a case of what truly could have been
Dirty board politics destroyed career of a fantastic cricketer Utpal David Chatterjee.
Victim of Bombay Lobby.
Remmber him in Sharjah cup
উৎপল বাবু প্রণাম নেবেন❤🙏

Petty zonal politics kept him out. India missed legend
Azhar preferred South Indian and Sachin preferred players from Maharashtra, during 90’s most players from this states thanks to dada who changed the face of India cricket
It was hard to make big shots from his deliveries. Bit like Daniel Vettorie.
That time, Mumbai and Karnataka lobby were too strong.
Pride if Bengal. Azharuddin ruined his career।।
politics against bengali cricketers is back...it's the reason why they ostracized ganguly, gujarat and mumbai has its foothold
his only crime is he is bengali
Darun talented chilen kintu politics er sikkat
On flat pitch of Sharjah
That Man Azhar destroyed his international career because he is from Bengal. Simple
Many cricket r lost due to dirty politics
a dropped catch of Martin Crowe on his own bowling costed him his international career.

Big bowler.bad luck not giving many more chances
He face nasty politics of indian cricket
Better bowler than sunil joshi Apparently a dropped catch off Sachin's bowling ended his career
Another victim of nasty politics of the Indian Cricket
His career was destroyed over Venkatpati Raju. Because chatterjee was a brahman and Raju was from politically and financially strong SC community
Azhar chose incompetent venkatpati Raju over this beautiful champion spinner as both of them from Hyderabad. Best example of nepotism. Utpal chatterjee is simply victimised by ugly politics of Indian cricket of that era
Better than venkat Pati Raju
প্রথম নাম শুনলাম
Better than rahul sanghvi, career destroyed by politics
Match fixers spoilt his career
Absolutely don't remember him nor this match
Vinod kambli was shameless and always gives lame excuses.But, Sachin got the catch threw himself 100% in the game always.That's why He conquered.Another one till today gives lame excuses & makes utopian stories.
If he played now, he would have gone for six sixes in an over. Absolute Bekaar bowler with no efficiency.
