Shivaji bhonsle Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 RANCHI: When India pacer Umesh Yadav runs in to bowl against Sri Lanka at the Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA) Stadium in Ranchi on Sunday, his mentor will be busy in the nets in Mumbai. Yadav's coach, former India fast bowler Subroto Banerjee will be busy shaping his newest and by far most-watched student - Arjun Tendulkar. The 46-year-old has been roped in as Arjun's coach by Sachin Tendulkar himself after his 14-year-old son expressed a desire to become a fast bowler. Banerjee, a close friend of Tendulkar for nearly two decades now, assumed the role after the iconic batsman requested him to have a look at his son earlier this year. "Arjun's interests lie more in fast bowling than batting. He is a fast learner and wonderful student," Banerjee said over the telephone from his residence in Mumbai. "His action is like of a young Zaheer Khan. Arjun also bowls at decent pace for his age." Banerjee, however, refrains from commenting on Arjun's future. "He is enjoying his game, but is very young. We are not putting any pressure on him, but will be monitoring his progress closely for a year," he said. http://m.timesofindia.com/top-stories/Banerjee-to-guide-Arjun-Tendulkar-in-fast-lane/articleshow/45157534.cms
SLICKR392 Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 "He is enjoying his game, but is very young.'' These words. :afraid:

rkt.india Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Where is Dennis Lillee when you need him,Hope he gives the same advice that he gave Arjun's dad We might get to see Left handed Goddie :yay: He hasn't been that good with the bat in age group though he is too young to assess anything. He will get to know his game better in 2-3 years time as he is no child prodigy like SRT.

Is it his crime he was born Tendulkar's son? How does western media disucssing someone's son justify we can do the same? Next what? Western guys only wipe their **** so Indians should start doing the same?

tweaker Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 He should not be turned into another Rohan Gawaskar
G_B_ Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 he was is? a utility player batting at 6 and bowling a bit of medium pace I doubt he has the height to be a fast bowler.
rkt.india Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 he was is? a utility player batting at 6 and bowling a bit of medium pace I doubt he has the height to be a fast bowler. He is 14, taller than his dad already. So height shouldn't be a problem. If likes of Aggy, Shami, Dinda can be pacers who are barely 5'8", so can he. He will certainly grow taller than them. Our current pacers except Ishant are between 5'8"-5'11", so none is too tall.
BeautifulGame Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Didn't daddy also want to be a seamer? Sachin and Ganguly as well. Lucky Lille shown them the door :giggle:
vijay50 Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Time for lillee to show up the mirror to Arjun. Hope he doesnt become another Pinny.
