varun Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 The man in-charge of the Dhirubhai Ambani School team, Hariom Phull was quoted in Mumbai Mirror as saying, “He was very accurate with the new ball and kept taking wickets at every interval. At one point, they were struggling 60 for 6. Tendulkar bowling 12 overs in this heat is a very encouraging sign for us. “He has lot of control on his swing.” Phassst bowler :hmmm: Link to comment

nsareen Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Son of a gun! Next-gen Tendulkar turns heads As Sachin Tendulkar approaches his 100th century, his son looks ready for a life in cricket ... as a bowler. Chris Barrett reports. The 12-year-old, clad in Team India training gear and a wide smile, strode in from a short run-off at the SCG practice nets and tried to find a way past his watchful dad, a man who holds a cricket bat like a wand. He was fended off, time after time. This is backyard cricket when your father is Sachin Tendulkar. You can't expect to get him out too often. Arjun Tendulkar, the son of Test cricket's greatest run-scorer, is a boy already used to the attention that comes with being the son of an icon. Bowling at his father at Moore Park yesterday, as India stepped up preparations for the second Test against Australia starting tomorrow, he acted as if he was one of Duncan FletcherÃÔ squad. One day he could be playing for India. Expectations are a facet of life of being TendulkarÃÔ offspring, and those of young Arjun have only intensified recently. While his father continues his quest for a 100th international hundred, keeping the cricket world holding its breath with each attempt, Arjun is busy making a name for himself, and not just in the Sydney nets. In good hands ... Sachin Tendulkar with his son Arjun at the SCG practice nets. In good hands ... Sachin Tendulkar with his son Arjun at the SCG practice nets. Photo: Ben Rushton It was in an interschool match in Mumbai in November that IndiaÃÔ cricket-obsessed public of 1.2 billion realised his burgeoning talents with bat and ball. The left-arm Arjun took 8-22 for the Dhirubhai Ambani International School on debut in the Harris Shield schools competition, bowling a dozen overs in a row and reportedly troubling all the opposition batsmen with his swing and accuracy. The reason for the subsequent hysteria on the subcontinent was not only because he is cricketing royalty. It was in the very same schools tournament in Mumbai more than 23 years ago that Tendulkar entered the public mind. Playing for his school, Shardashram Vidyamandir, the 14-year-old Little Master made waves with an unbeaten partnership of 664 runs with his friend Vinod Kambli, who went on to play 17 Tests in the mid-1990s. When their coach declared, Tendulkar had scored 326 and Kambli was undefeated on 349. Only 18 months later Tendulkar made his Test debut for India against Pakistan in Karachi at the age of 16. More than two decades later he has 51 Test centuries to his name, and is still going at the age of 38. To suggest Arjun is destined for such a breakthrough is, at present, fanciful and unfair. Sunil GavaskarÃÔ son Rohan also had pressure heaped on him as a result of his fatherÃÔ deeds and, although he flirted with international cricket, his career could be considered modest at best. However, young ArjunÃÔ efforts for his school and in the Indian training nets indicate that he could become a bowler rather than a batsman. Arjun is, contrary to his legendary old man, a left-hander with the bat but didnÃÕ get a chance to pad up yesterday as FletcherÃÔ side was in serious training mode following their 122-run defeat to Australia in Melbourne last week. Yet his bowling has made headlines in India and also reportedly got the better of one of TendulkarÃÔ squad colleagues in the lead-up to the Boxing Day Test at the MCG. Indian media reported that Arjun, bowling at Rohit Sharma, had with late away movement beaten the batsman with his first delivery in the nets. Sharma, 24, hopes to make his Test debut in Sydney, possibly at the expense of Virat Kohli in the Indian middle order. From facing TendulkarÃÔ son in practice, he hopes to be around if or when the great man reaches that special milestone in Sydney. ÃñWhat he has done for cricket is tremendous,Ãò Sharma said yesterday. ÃñNot only Indians but even Australians, and all over the world ... people want him to get that landmark as quickly as possible. As we know, Sydney is his ground, so hopefully it happens here.Ãò Link to comment
BestVRest Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Why put pressure on a 12 year old child? Leave the kid alone and let him go about it in his own way. Link to comment

Needforspeed Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 All the best for the Kid. Tough enough being son of such a famous man...and with all the media attention. Link to comment
akshayxyz Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 On serious note - one can't expect better facilities and people to coach around - from such a young age.. if he still can't make it big.. at least a regular name in Indian squad - based on merit...than he has himself to blame.. definitely can't blame the genes :) Link to comment
rkt.india Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 He is only 12 and far from anything in cricket. He is just a kid. It will take at least 6-8 years before he can show his true talent whatever he has. Link to comment

Jersey #10 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Sachin should better start practicing to bat with the tail enders if he ever wants to bat with his son in a game. A fast bowler? how phaast is he? ps - He's tall for a 12 year old. Fantastic signs for a fast bowler :D...and a left hander :D Link to comment
