Anvay Dravid, son of former India coach and captain Rahul Dravid, received two significant awards at the Karnataka State Cricket Association's (KSCA) annual awards ceremony in Bengaluru. He earned recognition for his outstanding batting performances in the Vijay Merchant Trophy and the under-14 state league.
Anvay excelled as a wicketkeeper-batter in the under-16 Vijay Merchant Trophy, amassing 357 runs in five matches. He maintained an impressive average of 45, including four half-centuries.
Anvay also topped the run-scoring charts in the under-14 state league tournament while representing Vijaya Cricket Club. This achievement further solidified his reputation as a promising young talent.
Prakhar Chaturvedi, another rising star, was also honoured at the KSCA awards ceremony. He received the award for the highest run-scorer in the Cooch Behar Trophy 2023-24, a tournament where Karnataka clinched their maiden title by defeating Mumbai.
Chaturvedi's performance in the final was nothing short of extraordinary. He etched his name in history by becoming the first batter to score a quadruple century in the tournament's final.
His unbeaten 404 against Mumbai in Shimoga shattered a long-standing record. He surpassed the previous highest score of 358, set by former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh 24 years prior.
Chaturvedi's overall performance in the Cooch Behar Trophy was remarkable. He accumulated 795 runs in eight matches at a stunning average of 79.50, with two centuries and a fifty.
