Rahul Dravid is famous as The Wall in Indian cricket. With his brilliant batting, he pulled Team India out of difficult situations many times and helped them win many matches. Recently, under his coaching, he also made Team India win the T20 World Cup. In his brilliant career, Rahul Dravid scored more than 13 thousand runs in Tests at an average of 52. At the same time, he scored about 11 thousand runs in ODI matches at an average of 39. Dravid was known for his classic batting style and strong technique. Now son Samit Dravid has also stepped into the world of cricket following in his footsteps. Samit has got entry in the Maharaja Trophy, where he was seen playing with many big players of IPL. However, he failed miserably in his first match.

Samit could score only 7 runs

Maharaja Trophy is a domestic T20 league, which is organized by Karnataka Cricket. 6 teams are participating in it. Rahul Dravid's son has got a chance to play for Mysore Warriors, which has bought him for 50 thousand rupees. His team has many big players like Karun Nair and Krishnappa Gautam, who have also played for Team India along with IPL. Like Rahul Dravid, fans also had high expectations from Samit. Team captain Karun Nair himself was excited to see him. However, he could not show much magic in the first match of the league against Namma Shivamogga. During the first batting, captain Nair gave Samit a chance at number four, but he was out after scoring only 7 runs in 9 balls. He made a big mistake during the match. He was caught by Doddamani Anand on the ball of Hardik Raj. Let us tell you that Samit is an all-rounder and also does medium pace bowling along with batting.
