Career Highlights
Kasprowicz was known for his swing and relentless and hard-working approach, and was particularly known for his contributions in 2004 to Australia's success in the Indian subcontinent, where they had struggled in the past, especially with pace bowling. He was also called the "Subcontinent Specialist",for his unique ability to generate considerable amounts of pace from subdued tracks and in the process picking up regular wickets. Kasprowicz played in all the Tests on the tours of Sri Lanka and India, which were won 3–0 and 2–1. Australia had not won a Test series in India for 34 years until then, and their whitewash of Sri Lanka contrasted with their previous two tours there, which ended 1–0 and 0–1.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
