Arjun Tendulkar


While Sachin Tendulkar will be playing his third Ranji Trophy game of the season for Mumbai's senior side in the semifinal against Services in Delhi, son Arjun is set to represent the under-14 team in the West Zone league games in Ahmedabad.

Though the addition of a 'Tendulkar' to the Mumbai U-14 side adds spice to the zonal games, Tendulkar senior called for Arjun to be treated as just another member.
"Like any other parent I feel happy and proud that he is a part of the Mumbai U-14 team. His hard work has paid off. I hope that people leave him alone to enjoy this beautiful game as a normal member of the team," said Tendulkar.

The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) said that Arjun will not be treated any differently from the way the others would be.
 "He is an attacking batsman, which should be an asset for us," PV Shetty, MCA's joint secretary, told HT.
In May 2012, Arjun had slammed 124 to help Khar Gymkhana beat Goregaon Centre in the semifinal of the MCA's U-14 selection trial. 
That was the 13-year-old's first ton at the level, which also meant that he was selected for MCA's U-14 off-season camp in June.
Arjun is a left-handed top order batsman, who can also open. Apart from his aggressive batting, he is an effective left-arm medium-pacer. The West Zone tournament, which consists of two-day games, is scheduled from January 20 to February 1.

Bal Thackeray life history

Views on Bal Thackeray, known as Balasaheb, were as polarised as the politics he practiced.  Known for his caustic tongue, he was idolised by his followers in the Shiv Sena and scorned in equal measure by liberal and secular Indians for his communal, divisive politics that didn't stop with radical expression of views against Muslims and violent action against those opposed to his extreme righwing ideas - including being firmly opposed to the visit of the Pakistani cricket team to India. The cartoonist turned politician was often portrayed as a roaring tiger, the much cherished logo of his party Shiv Sena, which he formed to accord dignity to Maharashtrians but which became known as a party of restless youngsters out for trouble. He was a demogogue whose strong views polarised the polity at the state and the national level, but he never flinched from expressing himself with conviction despite opposition. The posterboy of rightwing Hindu and Marathi chau...
