About Ravinder Senghera
- Ravinder Senghera (born 25 January 1947 in Kamla Nagar, Delhi) is an Indian-born former English first-class cricketer who played a number of times for Worcestershire in the mid-1970s; he also had one game for D.
- H.
- Robins' XI in 1974. After a number of games for Worcestershire's second team, Senghara broke into the first eleven in May 1974 against Cambridge University.
- Worcestershire declared their first innings at 388/1 (Turner 202*) and eventually won by an innings, so Senghera did not get to bat, but he claimed five wickets in the match, his maiden scalp being that of Peter Hayes.
- A couple of weeks later he played against Oxford University and did even better, taking 8-108 in the match; his first-innings 5-81 remained his only five-wicket haul.
- He made no further county appearances that year, but did turn out (albeit rather ineffectually) for DH Robins' XI against the Pakistanis at Eastbourne. In 1975, Senghera again played only a handful of games, and ten first-class wickets at 57.40 was a less than satisfactory return.
- There were a couple of minor bright spots only: he hit a fighting 36 not out as part of an unbroken last-wicket stand of 58 with Norman Gifford (30*) against Gloucestershire, and he also took the first of only two career one-day wickets when he dismissed Kent's John Shepherd in June.
- (His other one-day wicket was that of Clive Rice of Nottinghamshire in 1976, but the gap between them was only two days short of a year.) 1976 saw Senghera enjoy his only extended run in the Worcestershire team, making 16 first-class and eight List A appearances, but he did not make the most of this opportunity.
- Although more effective than in the previous season, he remained somewhat expensive with the ball, averaging 42.73 for his 34 first-class wickets, while in the one-day game he sent down 28.3 overs but took only the aforementioned wicket of Rice, for a total cost of 146 runs.
- As a batsman he fell away badly in scoring only 221 runs in 20 first-class innings and 40 in five List A games. Senghara's last game was in early September 1976, when he picked up the single wicket of Zaheer Abbas in Worcestershire's nine-wicket defeat by Gloucestershire.
