Another star kid getting opportunities. While I'm sure Anvay is talented, I hope selection is purely merit-based. Indian cricket needs to ensure equal chances for everyone, not just those with famous surnames.

His performance in the Vinood Mankad Trophy was impressive! 82* while chasing 236 shows he has the temperament. Being Rahul Dravid's son must bring huge expectations, but he seems to be handling it well.

Good to see talent from Karnataka continuing to shine! Anvay as wicketkeeper too - following in his father's footsteps but carving his own path. All the best to Team C! 🇮🇳

The pressure on these kids with famous parents must be immense. Hope Anvay gets to enjoy his cricket journey without constant comparisons. His recent captaincy performance suggests he's got leadership qualities too!

Exciting times for Indian cricket! So many young talents coming up. Anvay's selection shows the system is working, but let's not forget the other 59 players who also earned their spots through hard work. 🏏
