A left-arm quick bowler, Aravind was called up to India's One Day International squad for the series against England in October 2011 but suffered an injury and did not play.[3]

Aravind made his Twenty20 International debut for India against South Africa on 2 October 2015, taking the wicket of Faf du Plessis.[4] This was Aravind's only international appearance.

Domestic career

In the 2011 Champions League Twenty20, Arvind played in six matches as his team, the Royal Challengers, made it to the final, losing to the Mumbai Indians.

Arvind overcame a career-threatening accident a couple of years ago and made his first-class debut in 2008.[5] He is known for his ability to bowl both left arm fast and left arm spin.[6]
