Hanuma Vihari & the return of supple wrists from the land of Nizams
New Delhi, Sep 3: There is something common with all the batsmen who have over the years come from the land of the Nizams - magical wristwork. Be it M.L. Jaisimha, Mohammad Azharuddin or V.V.S. Laxman, they all knew how to nonchalantly hit the same ball through the covers as well as through mid-wicket. And now, Team India has found a new artist from the same place in Hanuma Vihari. And in his short career, Vihari -- just like the predecessors -- has shown what supple wrists can do to disturb the line and length of a bowler.
While in 1960s, it was Jaisimha who attracted the eyes of many and made fans all over the world with his famous wristwork, Azharuddin just took it forward and made sure that the skill set associated with the batsmen coming from the southern part of the country remained a unique feature of the national team from 1984 onwards.
