TO bowl out a team like Mumbai for 366 on its home turf is a commendable performance
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.
That is what young Tamil Nadu left-arm spinner Aushik Srinivas achieved yesterday in the Super League Group

"What better way to get your first fifer than against the Ranji champions. 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.
"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.
"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.
