The Post-Tendulkar Era
UPDATE: As CricSis blogger Shridhar Jaju pointed out in the comments, Jaidev Unadkat beat Abhinav Mukund to this distinction.
A new era has begun. Abhinav Mukund will open the batting today against West Indies.
Why is Abhinav Mukund special? He is the first Indian Test player to have been born after Sachin Tendulkar made his debut. There will be many more, but he is the first.
Abhinav Mukund, born January 6, 1990. 52 days after Sachin Tendulkar's debut
