How to come into the limelight Dhas
Sachin Dhas comes from the Marathwada area of Beed, Maharashtra. He rose to prominence while playing with the Kolkapur Tuskers, captained by Kedar Jadhav, in the 2023 Maharashtra Premier League. Dhas then made headlines at the Under-19 World Cup, scoring a century in the Super Six match against Nepal.
However, in the semi-final against South Africa, young Dhas showed that he is here to achieve something significant in this game. Das, who played his innings carefully, is much discussed.
Name inspired by Tendulkar
Sachin Dhas’s father Sanjay revealed that he has been a big fan of Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar. Sanjay said that he named his son inspired by Tendulkar. Sanjay is working in the Health Department of the Maharashtra Government. He has also worn the number 10 jersey because he is a big fan of Sachin Tendulkar.
I admire Sunil Gavaskar, but I named my baby after Sachin Tendulkar, my second favorite cricketer. This is because he can empathize with Tendulkar. What would the current generation think of Gavaskar, sir? He wears the number 10 shirt because he holds a high regard for Tendulkar.
