An army officer, he played his domestic cricket for [[Services cricket team|Services]] in a career that extended from 1955–56 to 1968–69.<ref>''[[Wisden Cricketers' Almanack|Wisden]]'' 2013, p. 241.</ref> He came to national prominence in 1958–59 when, playing for Services, he dismissed the first three [[West Indies cricket team|West Indian]] batsmen in a tour match. He followed that up with 6 for 10 against Patiala, and was selected for the Third Test. He took 2 for 168 in the only West Indies innings, the only Indian bowler to take more than one wicket. He then took 7 for 14 and 6 for 62 against [[Railways cricket team|Railways]],<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/23/23306.html Railways v Services 1958–59]</ref> and retained his position for the Fourth Test. This time he took no wickets in another big West Indian victory, and he lost his place for the Fifth Test.

On the tour of England in 1959 he opened the bowling with [[Ramakant Desai]] in all five Tests, and took 16 wickets at 26.62 to lead the Indian bowling averages. In the Fourth Test he took 5 for 115 off 47.1 overs in the first innings,<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/23/23679.html England v India, Manchester 1959]</ref> and in the Fifth he took 5 for 75 off 51.3 overs in England's only innings, as well as making his highest Test score of 27, adding 58 for the eighth wicket with [[Naren Tamhane]] after India had been 74 for 7 in their first innings.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/23/23776.html England v India, The Oval 1959]</ref> "For one not too well endowed physically he stood up well to many long spells of bowling," noted ''[[Wisden Cricketers' Almanack|Wisden]]'', but he "spent hours bowling down the leg side" to a packed leg-side field; "this happy cricketer would help the game if he developed his attack on the off-stump instead of outside the leg-stump".<ref>''Wisden'' 1960, p. 265.</ref>

He played the first two Tests against Australia in 1959–60 but took only two wickets and was omitted from the Test side. After taking 6 for 34 to dismiss [[Delhi cricket team|Delhi]] on the first morning of their [[Ranji Trophy]] match in December 1960,<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/24/24570.html Delhi v Services 1960–61]</ref> he returned to the Test team for the Third and Fourth Tests against Pakistan in 1960–61. He had figures of 46–20–93–4 in the first innings of the Third Test, when he once again formed the opening attack with Desai,<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/24/24579.html India v Pakistan, Calcutta 1960–61]</ref> but took only two more wickets in the next three innings and lost his place again.

He scored his only first-class century in 1961–62, 119 against Southern Punjab, but only 187 runs at 15.58 in the whole season.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/1/1092/f_Batting_by_Season.html Surendranath batting by season]</ref> He also took 22 wickets at 28.04,<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/1/1092/f_Bowling_by_Season.html Surendranath bowling by season]</ref> but was unable to force his way back into the Test team. He played irregularly thereafter, but in five Ranji Trophy matches in 1967–68 he took 25 wickets at 13.44,<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Events/1/Ranji_Trophy_1967-68/Bowling_by_Average.html Ranji Trophy bowling averages 1967–68]</ref> helping Services reach the semi-finals. In the final zonal match, when Services needed at least a first-innings victory to overtake Railways and make the finals, he took 7 for 59 to dismiss Railways for 114 in reply to Services' 207.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/29/29200.html Services v Railways 1967–68]</ref>
