Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Gautham was left out mid-way in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2018/19 after a string of failures and he was not included for the subsequent Ranji Trophy too which meant both the Sharath's were drafted into the team. Sharath Srinivas is a right-hand wicket-keeper batsman who has played for the Karnataka at different age groups and has made decent contributions with the bat. His keeping is also highly rated which gives him that extra edge. Sharath BR, the first-choice wicket-keeper for Karnataka in the Ranji Trophy failed to get going after his century on debut and as a result, his namesake Sharath Srinivas replaced him for the game against Gujarat in Surat. Sharath Srinivas proved his mettle with a patient 47 in his maiden innings and also was impressive behind the stumps grabbing 5 catches. In the Semi-Final against Saurashtra, Sharath bailed Karnataka out of trouble with a gritty 83. So, it is going be a tussle between both the Sharath's and it remains to be seen who'll be preferred for the new season
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Despite being one of the most consistent performers on the domestic circuit, Sridharan Sharath couldn't step up to the international stage. He was unlucky that his prime coincided with a period when India's middle order - with the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman - was packed with immense talent. Sharath didn't possess an immaculate technique, was disproportionately built - with clumps jutting out at the waist - and made batting look like hard work. In many ways he was Indian domestic cricket's Arjuna Ranatunga - the man for a crisis, the cool head under pressure, the hardworking artisan in a side packed with artists. For 15 seasons since 1992, he had amassed 8390 runs at an average close to 52. He became the only Tamil Nadu player to play 100 Ranji Trophy games and celebrated the moment with a century against Saurashtra in December 2006. He announced his retirement a month later, but reversed his decision ahead of the next domestic season, accepting an offer to represent Assam.
