<p>TO bowl out a team like Mumbai for 366 on its home turf is a commendable performance. It's even more noteworthy if the architect of the rout happens to be a 16-year-old.<br /><br />That is what young Tamil Nadu left-arm spinner Aushik Srinivas achieved yesterday in the Super League Group

And, if that is not heady enough then he got a legend like Sachin's autograph on the ball with which he achieved it," Tamil Nadu coach W V Raman told MiD DAY.<br /><br />"I saw Sachin at the ground and since it was Srinivas' first five-wicket haul, I requested him to autograph the ball for the boy," added Raman.<br /><br />"He is bowling the length of yesteryear spinners; making the ball hit the top half of the bat than the lower half. Those six inches make the difference," said former India opener Raman.<br /></p>
