Notes:
Was a member of the India under-19 team that won the Asia Cup in 2003-04.
Came into limelight when he scored a brilliant 66 for India B against India A in the Challenger Trophy in Mumbai in 2004-05 against an attack that comprised Zaheer Khan, RP Singh and Murali Kartik.
Made a match-winning 78-ball hundred (116 off 93 balls) for India B against India A in the Challenger Series in Mohali in 2005-06 against VRV Singh, RP Singh and L Balaji, racing from 61 to 100 in just 15 balls.
Selected for India to play in the final one-dayer against England at Indore (in place of Virender Sehwag) and compiled the highest score by an Indian on ODI debut. Should have gone on to score a hundred, but lost his wicket because of his casual running between the wickets when in the 80s. His next two ODI innings produced only 12 and 0.
With 854 runs in seven matches including four hundreds and three fifties (avg.65.69) Uthappa is the leading run-scorer in Ranji Trophy this season.
