Print Edition
A MUMBAI teenager has become the first batsman to score 1,000 runs in an officially recognized innings.
Pranav Dhanawade, a 15-year-old opening batsman, scored 1,009 not out playing for KC Gandhi School against Arya Gurukul School in a tournament recognized by the Mumbai Cricket Association. His team declared at 1,465-3. The opposite team had earlier been shot out for 31. Dhanawade, son of an auto rickshaw driver, smashed 59 sixes and 129 fours off only 323 balls, making the most of the short boundary on one side. The previous record in minor cricket 鈥 below first-class and List A level 鈥 was 628 not out by England鈥檚 Arthur Collins, who was born in India, in 1899. Mumbai has a tradition of big scores in school cricket. Retired legend Sachin Tendulkar first came to prominence with a 326 not out in 1988.
