Two giants of Indian politics, who have their own influence in Bihar. One of them has also been the Chief Minister of Bihar. But both these legendary sons started their career not from politics but from the cricket field. But their success here did not work, so both the children followed their father's path. 27 year old Sarthak also started his career with cricket. But like Lalu Prasad Yadav's son Tejashwi, his hand also appeared tight on the cricket field.
no success in cricket
We are talking about former Chief Minister of Bihar Lalu Prasad Yadav and former MP Rajesh Ranjan alias Pappu Yadav. Everyone knows about Lalu's son Tejashwi Yadav. He started his career with cricket, but could not leave his mark even in first class and took the path of politics. 34 year old Tejashwi also became the Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar. But now he is the leader of opposition in the assembly. At the same time, we will talk about Pappu Yadav's son Sarthak Ranjan. 27 year old Sarthak also started his career with cricket. But like Tejashwi, his hand also appeared tight on the cricket field.
Joined politics with father
Sarthak played his last home match in 2018. After this, he became fully active in politics along with his father. Pappu Yadav merged his Jan Adhikar Party with Congress. Along with this, Sarthak has also joined Congress following his father's footsteps. Both Tejashwi and Sarthak failed on the cricket field. Both Tejashwi and Sarthak looked restless with the bat. But there are many similarities between the two. Today we will talk specifically about all this. The difference between the two is that Tejashwi had already played in the Indian Premier League (IPL), whereas Sarthak could not even show his face in the league.
Jharkhand domestic cricket
Tejashwi was with Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals) in IPL for 4 seasons (2008-12), but he never got a chance in the playing eleven. Apart from batting in the middle order, he was also capable of bowling brilliantly. At the same time, Sarthak was not seen in IPL also. Strange figures of 1-2 and 19-20 are being seen between Tejashwi and Sarthak on the cricket field. Actually, this coincidence is related to first class cricket of both. Actually, Tejashwi has played first class matches in his career, while Sarthak has played 2 matches. Tejashwi has played domestic cricket for Jharkhand and Sarthak has played domestic cricket for Delhi. Apart from this, another coincidence is taking place in batting.
Will see big post
Tejashwi played a first-class match in his career, in which his best score was 19 runs. Opener Sarthak played 2 matches and his best score was 20 runs. In this way a figure of 19-20 is visible between the two. But on the political pitch, Tejashwi looks 20 years old. His political career so far is an example of this. By the age of 34, he had reached the level of Deputy Chief Minister. He is now in the race to become the Chief Minister. Whereas Sarthak is 7 years younger than him and is learning to enter politics. It is possible that in the next few years he may be seen on some big post in the Center or the State.

campaign for fathers
When asked about not being able to play for the then Delhi Daredevils team in the IPL, father Lalu Prasad once said that at least his son got a chance to provide water to the players. But Pappu Yadav did not get a chance to say this. Tejashwi started election campaign for his father in 2010. After that, despite being contracted as an IPL player, Tejashwi campaigned for his father Lalu Prasad Yadav in the Bihar Assembly elections. Then it became clear that Lalu wanted to bring his son into politics.
