For this, the Indian squad of 17 players was announced a few days ago. In this, the background of young Siddharth Yadav, who was selected from the state of Uttar Pradesh, has taken many cricket fans by surprise. So let’s see what is the background of Siddharth Yadav and what is the reason why he is celebrated.
Kotkan is a small village located next to Ghaziabad in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Shravan Yadav is from this village. He runs a casual grocery store in the area. His son is Siddharth Yadav. Knowing that he had a keen interest in cricket from an early age, Shravan started coaching Siddharth from the age of eight.
Shravan has been training his son for 3-4 hours daily as he does not care if the shop business is affected. During training, Sravan will bowl to Siddharth. Otherwise, the son will throw the ball and the father will bat. With this, Siddharth gradually became disillusioned with cricket as a school, college and district. Subsequently, he played for the Uttar Pradesh state under-16 team, scoring a double century and five centuries and was selected for the Zonal Cricket Academy. He later trained at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore and is currently a member of the Under-19 World Cup squad.
Shravan has now succeeded in making his son a cricketer somehow, without the slightest hesitation, when the family pressured him to focus more on his studies, regardless of his grocery business.
While cricket fans have been congratulating Siddharth for the World Cup, he has also been giving likes to his father’s dedication.
