From Gavaskar to Viv Richards: Number 3 also played World Cup for India, son of 5 legendary cricketers who could not achieve the place like father
Whenever a legendary cricketer in the cricket world takes goodbye to cricket due to his age or fitness, then at that time there is some emptiness in the cricket world. In such a situation, many players think of bringing their children into the cricket world. Today, you will tell you about the sons of 5 such legendary players, who tried their best to make their identity in the cricket world like their father, but could not carry forward the legacy of their father.
1. Rohan Gavaskar
Sunil Gavaskar is called the Little Master of Indian Cricket. He has inspired many players with his best performance, but he could not inspire his son so much that he could play internationally. Sunil Gavaskar’s son Rohan Gavaskar performed well for Bengal in domestic cricket, but he has been able to play only 11 ODIs for the country.
2. Mali Richards
West Indies great batsman Sir Viv Richards’s son under-19 levels made a lot of headlines. During that time, Mali Richards scored 319 runs at the under-19 level. Apart from this, he has also played county cricket for Middlesex, but he has never made a place in the West Indies national team.
3. Stuart Binny
Stuart Binny, son of Roger Binny, who was the all -rounder of the Indian team, made his debut for India in 2014. He was also a part of the 2015 World Cup team, but he could not make his place due to not being able to perform properly in any format. As soon as the players like Hardik Pandya got a chance, he got out of the team.
4. Hamish Rutherford
Former New Zealand captain Kane Rutherford has brought the team to many heights under his captaincy. His son Hamish Rutherford also got a chance to play in international cricket, but he lost the opportunity by performing disappointing in 30 innings.
5. Richard Hutton
England’s great batsman Sir Len Hutton scored an average of 57 in the 79 Tests in the 1950s for his team. But even after his son performed well in domestic cricket, he could play only 5 Tests in his career.
