		Mohinder was considered one of the best Indian all-rounders ever, and along with captain Kapil Dev, the hero of the Indian victory in the 1983 Cricket World Cup.

	Cricinfo - Shoaib shatters the Kiwis, Mohinder ambles to glory
		Indeed, by the time of this match, Amarnath had established quite a reputation for standing up to the West Indies attack; the moustache he sported through the World Cup was to hide the remains of the 25 stitches he'd required after being hit by a Marshall special on India's tour of the Caribbean weeks earlier.
		Mohinder's contribution may seem less consequential when compared to the relative pyrotechnics of Sandhu and Kapil but his figures - 7-0-12-3 - speak of how he choked off West Indies' relatively sober fightback after the big guns collapsed under the weight of hubris.
		Amarnath's achievements through 1983 led to his being named one of Wisden's five cricketers of the year.

	CI Interactive: Interview with Mohinder Amarnath
		Amarnath: vishal: he is very entertaining, but I wouldn't think that he will be successful in each and every innings with this style of play.
		Amarnath: No, I think because he has set himself such a high standard for batting, when he fails in one or two innings, that we always feel he is not doing much.
		Amarnath: Sunil Joshi is an upcoming player, but I won't call him an allrounder, but he has the potential to be one in the near future, provided he learns to play fast bowling better.

	MSN India :: Exclusive Column - Over the Top
		In the Seventies and the Eighties, there was Mohinder Amarnath, who played just 69 Tests in a career that began before Sunil Gavaskar made his debut and ended after Sunny had kept his whites away one final time.
		If he does not find a mention among the greatest batsmen India has produced, it is mainly due to the way the ‘bunch of jokers', as he so pithily called the selection panel, toyed with a career that could have delivered so much more.
		Laxman is much too refined to come up with anything as strong as Mohinder did, but he is clearly hurting, as his comments on being excluded from the ODI squad for the Bangladesh tour prove.

		Mohinder Amarnath, who failed to get selected as the Indian cricket team coach recently, has questioned validity of process adopted by the board to pick the right man for the job.
		Mohinder was dressed well no doubt but the fact that he had to drag in his brother in law to present his coaching skills via a computer jeopardised Mohinder's chances real bad.
		Mohinder, on the other hand should realize that at this level, the job of the coach is that of a motivator and a communicator, more than anything else.
