Adrian Anton Shankar (born 7 May 1982) is an English cricketer. Shankar is a right-handed batsman and occasional off-spin bowler. He was born at Ascot, Berkshire and educated at Bedford School during his childhood. Spending the majority of his career on the fringes of county cricket, Shankar became embroiled in controversy in 2011 when he was released by Worcestershire County Cricket Club, having been discovered to have lied about his age and achievements in order to gain a professional contract.〔http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/adrian-shankar-cricket-conman-989〕 ==Early career== After leaving Bedford School, where he had played cricket for the school alongside Alastair Cook, following his A Levels in 2000, Shankar proceeded to read law at Cambridge University. It was for the university cricket club that he made his first-class debut against Middlesex in 2002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-Class Matches played by Adrian Shankar )〕 Shankar played first-class cricket for the university from 2002 to 2005, playing his final first-class match against Oxford University,〔 while on occasion he captained the university. Shankar played 12 first-class matches for the University, scoring 384 runs at an average of 27.42.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-class Batting and Fielding For Each Team by Adrian Shankar )〕 His one innings of note came against Oxford University in 2002, when he scored 143 runs from 297 balls, before being dismissed by Stephen Hawinkels.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oxford University v Cambridge University, 2002 )〕 This was Shankar's only first-class century and was the only time he passed fifty. The bowling in the match was later described by Cambridge University coach Chris Scott as "unbelievably bad".〔 Shankar made his debut for Bedfordshire while still at Bedford School, making his debut against Norfolk in the 2000 Minor Counties Championship. Between 2000 and 2006, Shankar played infrequently for Bedfordshire, making 21 Minor Counties Championship appearances〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played by Adrian Shankar )〕 and 2 MCCA Knockout Trophy appearances, which came in 2006.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Trophy Matches played by Adrian Shankar )〕 It was for Bedfordshire that he made his List A debut for, against Sussex in the 2005 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy at Wardown Park.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List A Matches played by Adrian Shankar )〕 He was dismissed for 27 runs in this match by Jason Lewry, which was the second highest score in Bedfordshires' innings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bedfordshire v Sussex, 2005 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy )〕 During this period, he played Second XI cricket for the Middlesex Second XI, Worcestershire Second XI and Sussex Second XI,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Teams Adrian Shankar played for )〕 however his career was interrupted for 18 months when he suffered from glandular fever.〔 After representing the Lancashire Second XI in 2008, Shankar was given a two-year contract with Lancashire. Lancashire cricket coach, Mike Watkinson, stated "Adrian is a quality young batsman who fills a gap in our player development programme. He has attracted interest from a number of other counties which confirms his potential". While on the Lancashire staff, Shankar chose to study part-time for a two-year masters course in international relations, also at Cambridge. It fitted in with Shankar's ambition to play cricket for Lancashire as the course required that he only had to be in Cambridge for six weeks of the year. However, Shankar failed to impress and did not play for Lancashire's first team.
