Samit Dravid, the son of former India captain and current India head coach Rahul Dravid, is following in his father's footsteps. He recently hit 98 in a Cooch Behar Trophy U19 match for Karnataka against Jammu and Kashmir.
Samit's amazing knock of 13 fours and a six helped Karnataka upset J&K by an innings and 130 runs. In the video, which has gone viral on social media, Dravid's son can be seen playing some incredibly enticing strokes.
According to a Times Now source, in the Cooch Behar Trophy game, J&K batted first and scored 170. In Karnataka's innings, Samit batted at No. 5 and contributed 233 runs for the fourth wicket with Karthikeya KP. The latter top-scored with 163 off 175 balls.
Karnataka declared their first innings on 480/5 in 100 overs, owing to Samit and Karthikeya's superb batting. J&K lost the game by an innings deficit after failing to compel Karnataka to bat again.

Earlier, Dravid and his wife Vijeta were spotted during their son Samit's Cooch Behar Trophy match against Uttarakhand at Mysuru's SDNRW Ground. Dravid was on leave from national duty at the time and took advantage of the opportunity to watch his son play.
