In-form Narayan Jagadeesan, 26, has multiple records under his belt for Tamil Nadu. But the Coimbatore-based wicketkeeper-batsman learnt his cricket fundamentals in Mumbai. In the last few weeks, Jagadeesan has become a household name after scoring five consecutive centuries, which include a record-breaking knock of 277 against Arunachal Pradesh in the Vijay Hazare Trophy at Bangalore recently.

Jagadeesan was just 11 when his father CJ Narayanan, 61, flew especially to Mumbai along with him to take the blessings of veteran coach Ramakant Achrekar and to train under former India cricketer Chandrakant Pandit.
