Mamu Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 If former player Keith Arthurton is to be believed, the West Indies [ Images ] has unearthed the next Sachin Tendulkar [ Images ] in a seven-year-old hailing from Hannah Estate in Tortola. Arthurton conducted a three-day coaching clinic this weekend on the islands of Tortola and Virgin Gorda and had no doubt whatsoever that he has seen the next Tendulkar in Aidan Gorege. "While he was batting, I heard someone in the crowd shout out that he looked like Sachin Tendulkar and I thought the same thing because of the way he bats, his stance and his attitude," said Arthurton, who represented West Indies in 33 Tests and 105 ODI between 1988 and 1999. "You don't really see that in kids who are that young but he has something special in him and the local coaches should work with him so that he can develop his cricket skills," Arthurton said of Aidan, who is originally from Dominica. The youngest participant of the camp, Aidan looks older than his age and has a stance which is almost a replica of Tendulkar's, according to a report in the Anguilla News. Talking about the kid's technique, Arthurton said, "His stance is very good and he moved his feet at the right times and with ease. I certainly would like to work with him in future as I think he has the potential to develop into a very good player," Arthurton said. Star players Chris Gayle [ Images ], Ramnaresh Sarwan [ Images ] and Dinesh Ramdin [ Images ] also turned up at the camp to share their experience with the kids. A 20-over match at the H Lavity Stoutt Community College marked the end of the camp. Wonder why do they keep finding the next Tendulkar and not the Next Inzi -- heck even the next Lara and this in WI. Link to comment

DomainK Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Seven years old is next Tendulkar? I doubt Tendulkar was any good at seven. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I don't mind seeing a next Tendulkar. More the merrier. But talent alone cannot get you anywhere. Discipline, Dedication, Committment, Temperament lot of factors play role in shaping up a successful career. Good luck to the kid. Link to comment
