Whenever it comes to great players in the history of Indian cricket, the names of Virender Sehwag and Rahul Dravid are taken at the highest position. Both these greats have won many historic matches for India with their aggressive and patient game and have hoisted the country’s flag in world cricket. As the wheel of time has moved forward, the next generation of these legends have also started leaving their indelible mark on the cricket field. In this series, the selection committee of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made a very big and exciting announcement by announcing the Indian Under-19 cricket team for the upcoming international series. The biggest and surprising attraction in this new selection list has been that Virender Sehwag’s son Aryavir Sehwag and Rahul Dravid’s younger son Anvay Dravid have been officially selected in the Indian Under-19 team. As soon as this announcement came out, there has been a wave of excitement from social media to sports lovers and everyone is desperate to know how these two young star kids have performed in domestic cricket.
Aggressive batsman Aryaveer Sehwag made a place in the team on his own.
Virender Sehwag’s elder son Aryaveer Sehwag has caught the attention of selectors with his explosive batting in Delhi and domestic age-group cricket over the last few years. Just as his father Virender Sehwag was known for his explosive opening and putting pressure on the bowlers with the very first ball, a similar aggressive style is seen in Aryaveer’s game as well. However, cricket experts believe that Aryaveer has achieved this position not only with the help of his father’s name, but by continuously scoring big scores in different age-group tournaments and strengthening his technical ability. While playing for Delhi, he played brilliant innings in the Cooch Behar Trophy and other domestic competitions, after which speculations were being made that he would soon get a chance to represent at the national level. With his selection in the Under-19 team, it is expected that India’s batting line-up will get more strength and depth.
Wicketkeeping and calm nature of Rahul Dravid’s son Anvay Dravid attracted attention
On the other hand, Anvay Dravid, son of former head coach of the Indian team and Rahul Dravid, popularly known as the Great Wall, has also made his place in the Indian Under-19 team on the basis of his hard work and talent. In sharp contrast to his father Rahul Dravid, Anvay takes charge behind the wicket on the field and is making his mark as a brilliant wicketkeeper-batsman. Playing in Karnataka and the domestic circuit, Anvay has won everyone’s hearts not only with his wicket-keeping skills but also with his ability to bat calmly in pressure situations. Rahul Dravid had always advised his sons to stay away from the limelight and media glare and learn the ropes of cricket like normal children, and today, as a result of the same hard work, Anvay has achieved the honor of wearing the national jersey on the strength of his ability. The selectors believe that Anvay’s wicket-keeping technique and his patience while playing at the crease will prove to be very beneficial for the team.
There will be huge pressure and burden of expectations on the sons of veterans
Even though Aryaveer Sehwag and Anvay Dravid have been selected in the Indian Under-19 team on the basis of their own hard work and performance, it is also a bitter truth that being the sons of great cricketers, there will always be extra pressure on them. Whenever they take the field, the eyes of the world will be on their every shot and performance, and they will be compared directly to their legendary fathers. However, cricket experts believe that the guidance of experienced fathers like Rahul Dravid and Virender Sehwag will be the biggest strength of these youngsters, which will teach them to remain mentally strong amidst initial successes or failures. This new era of the Indian Under-19 team will not only shape the country’s future cricket stars, but will also prove that talent and discipline are what bring true identity on the field of play. Sports lovers are now eagerly waiting for the moment when these two young players will take the field wearing Indian jersey and make a new beginning in the pages of history with their game.
