Serious talent that.. saw some videos with him on youtube.. kinda reminds me of Mahela from Sri Lanka..

Think he made a debut ton in FC earlier in the year..

He's considered by some as the possible successor to Tendulkar, forget Kohli.

Kambli was supposed to be better than Tendy.

You need to be cut from a special cloth.

Dravid kept him away from an u-19 tournament to play FC

that was a genius move

He is setting it on fire..watched many of his YouTube videos and I think there was an interview with his father too. Incredible!!

I still remember God's debut Ranji 100 against Gujarat when he was just 15. The Hindu's sports page had a paragraph on it. That was all.

A few months after his 17th birthday,God was helping India draw a test at Old Trafford with his maiden test 100..

You have been on this MB too long..how can you forget Kohli and his 48 international 100s?

my obsession with the pre-adult Tendulkar has a lot to do with the sort of stuff he was getting done(reads like Viv speaking? hahaha) while we were checking out our next short pants for school...

i guess living in the past eh dinosaurs

Just for perspective..Prithvi is 18..Sachin was getting ready to tour Australia and score those magnificent test 100s at Perth and Sydney..

It helps that both belonged to MumBim.. lol
