Where is the next 'batting-kar' for India?

by Bored Guest

(Yenie's comment at "It's not just the little things that make Gavaskar and Tendulkar similar)

SMG and SRT together have given Indian Cricket an enduring legacy and also held the standard of Bombay cricket flying high in the Indian team for almost 4 decades. As long as I have been watching Cricket, there has been a tough as nails run hungry Bombay batsman at the top of the Indian batting order - more often than not carrying the entire Indian batting. That is why I am surprised when people don't appreciate what a momentous change it will be when SRT finally hangs up his shoes. Where is the next Mumbai top order bat to carry the nation's hopes on his shoulders? Where is the next 'batting-kar' for India? What's wrong with Bombay cricket that it is unable to produce the next successor of India's most famous Cricketing dynasty?

Why does Bombay have to prop up India always and everytime? Where is the next Indian who can hold a candle to the greatness of Mumbai's batsmen?

"What's wrong with Bombay cricket that it is unable to produce the next successor of India's most famous Cricketing dynasty?" - two geniuses back to back and yet India demands more.. How about doing your bit for a change?
