Jadhav, who hails from a poor family and travels in the local train daily with his grandmother from Badlapur — 65 km from the CST — caught Vengsarkar's attention when he scored a hundred for the academy team at the Azad Maidan recently.


Appreciating his talent and dedication, Vengsarkar handed over a kit bag, a cricket bat, pair of gloves and helmet to Jadhav.
