The cricketer had a glittering career that spanned over the late '70s and the '80s. The former Punjab cricketer was regarded as a gifted middle-order batsman.
During the 1983 World Cup, he was the top scorer for India in the semi-final against England. He smashed 61 runs and was also involved in a match-winning 92-run stand with Mohinder Amarnath for the third wicket. He followed that with another 63-run partnership for the fourth wicket with Sandeep Patil.
In his 42 Tests, he scored 1606 runs at 33.45 which included 2 centuries and nine half-centuries. In his 37 ODIs, he scored 883 runs at 28.48 which included four half-centuries. He also had one wicket each in the two formats to his name.
Yashpal Sharma had also served as a national selector for a couple of years and was reappointed to the panel in 2008.
