Priyankar Mukherjee

Priyankar Mukherjee (born 29 March 1985) is an Indian cricketer. He is a left-handed batsman and a right-arm off-break bowler who plays for Bengal. He was born in Uttarpara.

Mukherjee played a single game for the Bengali Under-16s team, during the 2000-01 season, though he didn't make another cricketing appearance for over two years, for the Under-19s. His best performance in the 2003-04 Cooch Behar trophy came in his penultimate game, in which he bowled 5-17 in the first innings of the match and 4-58 in the second.

He carried on this form with the bat into the start of the 2003-04 Under-19s limited overs competition, though he faltered slightly towards the end of the competition. In 2005-06, Mukherjee played for the Under-22s team, making some crucial innings in his occasional switches to the lower order - including a partnership of 177 with captain Manoj Tiwary - himself scoring 101 not out - against Tripura.

Mukherjee made his List A debut in the one-day Ranji Trophy competition in 2007. His first-class debut came the following season, against Andhra - and despite taking a wicket with the ball, he scored a pair with the bat.
