Despite having run up a Test average of over 50 in his first six Tests, Australian detractors claimed that when it came to their bowlers, his form would not hold up; Ramesh, however, soon proved that he could easily play against other top-class cricketers. After a respectable series in 2001-02 in which he did not convert his starts into big scores, he was soon discarded from the team. In the Sri Lankan tour, Ramesh passed 30 runs in 5 out of the 6 innings but only one innings was converted to a 50. Whilst he struggled in Australia, he did score a total of 110 runs in Shoaib Akhtar's first match. Akhtar took 4 wickets in each innings, including the first ball wicket of Sachin Tendulkar with an inswinging yorker. He played domestic cricket for Assam in the 2007 � 08 season.He has also till recently played domestic cricket for Kerala during the 2005 � 06 season and 2006 � 07 season. Ramesh is the only Indian bowler to take a wicket off his first ball in ODI cricket, the victim being Nixon McLean of the West Indies. He has recently acted in a Tamil movie, Santosh Subramaniam, released in April 2008.
