Ajit Agarkar is best known in a batting sense for his century at Lord’s in the 2002 Test against Nasser Hussain’s Englishmen. And he was no mug with the bat even as a teenager. His father Bhalchandra was talking to Milind Rege once on how his then teenaged son was scoring heavily on the Mumbai circuit.
Rege in turn advised Agarkar senior and junior that he should concentrate on his pace bowling. And that’s what Agarkar, the present India chief selector did best. The advice that Agarkar got was revealed by former India paceman and Mumbai’s 1992-93 captain, Raju Kulkarni at a Cricket Club of India-organised condolence meeting to remember Rege on Monday.
