Career

Khurasiya, a left-handed batsman, has the rare distinction of clearing the Civil Services Examination before he made his debut for India. As of today he is an Inspector in Indian Customs & Central Excise Department.

His first class career stretches back to 1989/90, and includes seventeen consecutive seasons (1990–91 to 2005–06). He made his ODI debut with a brisk 57 off 45 balls against Sri Lanka at Pune in the Pepsi Cup tri-nations tournament in 1999 which also involved Pakistan. He played 10 of his 12 ODIs in 1999.

He was included in the 1999 Indian World Cup squad, but didn't get a chance to play in any match in the tournament.

In 2001, he made a comeback into ODIs by playing two more matches against Sri Lanka in a tri-series without much success. He never played for India again.
