Debashish Mohanty's bowling action inspired World Cup logo despite brief Test career

Debashish Mohanty took a five-for on his first-class debut and 4/78 in his first Test against Sri Lanka. Two matches later, the Odisha pacer was done at that level.

White-ball cricket and domestic folklore gave him more room. His high-arm action became the graphic model for the World Cup logo — one of the most recognisable images tied to Indian cricket in that era.
