Ajay Ratra came around at the time when the Indian cricket team were experimenting with a lot of wicket-keepers. Like many others around the same time, he too did not have a long career with the national side, mainly due to his inconsistent performances with the bat.
He was a live wire behind the stumps, but his performances with the bat were quite dismal. However, he came up with a gem of an innings against West Indies in Antigua in 2002, scoring 115 runs. By doing so, he became the youngest wicketkeeper to score a Test century and the second Indian wicketkeeper to make one overseas.
