Ronald Charles "Ronnie" Irani            Origin/Culture/Country: British

Ronald Charles "Ronnie" Irani: was an English cricketer who spent most of his career at Essex County Cricket Club, latterly as captain. He is of Indian Irani descent. He played only three Tests for England, with decidedly mixed success, but found a niche in One Day Internationals. Irani was once a genuine all-rounder, and as of 2005 had a first-class batting average above 38 and a bowling average nine points lower, but a knee injury in 2003 forced him to stop bowling and play as a specialist batsman. Although initially seen as a major blow, Irani has since said that his inability to bowl has enhanced his batting game as a result of being able to focus more on this side of his game. The recurring nature of this knee injury led to Irani being forced to retire prematurely from first-class cricket in June 2007.
