Dear Friends, I have the opportunity to practise along with Test players before they went on to become cap for india. I was under coach Acherakar before sachin tendulakr the days and my experience says that the moments the players where selected to play for india,they where no where to be seen on the ground for net practise. Also after one foreign tour the so called players got a car/jeep and wher driving across the city in their newly attained status of players rather than net practise. I have seen Sandeep Patil coming to net practiseeven when he was playing for the country .That was the committment from old test players.Do you want me to name the players name i can do so, but will be exposed in the public domain. I have high regards for Sandeep patil due to his professional approach to cricket even today and ways to change with time.

My friend it was not of practise, but the place where i used to stay and the school where Achrekar used to coach out of way as i had to change a bus and train to reach it and it was very difficult in the years 1979-1981. With due respect to Achrekar, he had been to my residence requesting my parents to send me to school where he was coaching.
