Keynote Speaker Biography

About Monty Panesar

Celebrated for taking Sachin Tendulkar's wicket on debut
Key player in saving the 2009 Cardiff Test vs Australia
Author and cricket pundit post-retirement
Monty Panesar is a former England international cricketer who became a household name as a left-arm spin bowler, widely recognised for his impact on the field and the cultural resonance he held as one of the first British Asian Sikhs to represent England in Test cricket. His story blends sporting achievement, personal challenge and public service, offering a unique perspective on life under the spotlight.

Panesar made his Test debut for England in 2006, going on to take 167 Test wickets during a career that spanned almost a decade. Known for his sharp spin and tenacity, he represented several county sides including Northamptonshire, Sussex and Essex, and was twice part of an Ashes-winning squad. One of the highlights of Monty's illustrious career came when he played a crucial role in saving a test match against the formidable Australian team in Cardiff. This match, ranked as the fifth most significant test match in England's cricket history, solidified his standing as a true cricketing legend.

Off the pitch, his unfiltered honesty and openness have helped destigmatise conversations around mental health in elite sport. Having spoken candidly about his own experiences with anxiety and loss of confidence, Monty has become an advocate for mental wellbeing and resilience, especially within the sporting community.

Born in Luton to Indian parents, his identity as a British Sikh was integral to his public image and inspired many fans, particularly from minority communities. His appearance on the field, sporting a patka and full beard, was a visual statement of cultural inclusion in British sport.

Following his retirement from professional cricket, Monty completed a master’s degree in Broadcast Journalism and now works as a freelance journalist, contributing to major outlets such as CNN. He remains active in the cricket world as a coach and commentator, and his autobiography, The Full Monty, reflects on his journey from local club cricket to the international stage.
