 Profile

Jigar Naik became the first Leicester-born Asian to represent the county. The offspinner gets the ball to pick up pace off the pitch and he extracts bounce and turn. Naik progressed from club sides Kibworth and Billesdon to Leicestershire 2nds and has played a hatful of games for the first team. He has also played at Loughborough University.
