Anand Krishnamurthy is a senior cricket correspondent for The Hindu, celebrated for his deep knowledge of Tamil Nadu’s rich cricketing soil and the art of spin bowling. A Loyola College, Chennai graduate, he grew up watching the wizardry of local spinners on the Chepauk turf and has since dedicated his career to unpacking the tactical nuances of the turning ball. Anand covers the Indian team across formats and is a familiar presence at Ranji Trophy matches, where he scouts emerging talent from the south. His IPL analysis is widely read for its blend of statistical insight and on‑ground reporting. A recipient of the S. Rangarajan Memorial Award and his newspaper’s top sports honour, Anand is also the custodian of a growing digital archive of Indian cricket statistics, which he draws upon to enrich every piece. He believes that behind every great delivery lies a story of preparation, patience, and place.
