It was his swing bowling that got India its first wicket in the 1983 World Cup final at Lord's. But Balvinder Singh Sandhu is now responding to a task of finding more than just swing bowlers for Mumbai cricket. Sandhu, 61, was at the Wankhede Stadium yesterday to spot talent among raw, out and out fast bowlers and spinners. The response to Mumbai Cricket Association's latest talent hunt scheme was humungous in every sense of the term. Around 2000 pace bowlers belonging to the under-19 and under-23 age groups turned up at the Test venue.
