Background
Gopal is known for his sharp turning leg breaks that decimated the opposition batsmen. Shreyas is a technically sound batsman. Although he was predominantly a batsman, he improved on his leg breaks to become more of a bowling allrounder. He completed his bachelor's degree in commerce from the Jain University in Bengaluru. Gopal's father Ramaswamy Gopal was a club cricketer for 20 years while his mother Amitha played volleyball at state level. During his childhood he liked to copy the bowling action of his role model Anil Kumble.
