Pat Mahomes Sr. admits in the show how deeply he regretted his actions. He says having his son field questions about him was
'probably the most embarrassing thing that I've ever been through in my life.'

Patrick then adds that having his father back and cheering for him through the season 'is really cool' because those are moments
'you won't ever get again.'

'That was my mistake': Rohit Sharma's childhood coach shares how he discovered the batter inside future India captain
Rohit Sharma (AFP Photo) NEW DELHI: India's ODI captain Rohit Sharma 's journey to becoming one of modern cricket's most destructive openers almost took a very different path. His childhood coach, Dinesh Lad, has revealed that he first spotted Rohit not with a bat in hand, but as a promising off-spinner — and only discovered his batting talent by chance, much later. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Speaking on a YouTube podcast with Gaurav Manglani, Lad recalled: 'I first saw him as a bowler, he was about 12 years old. I saw him playing a match against us. Then I told his uncle (Chacha) to get him admitted to my school. The school started in 1995, and I saw Rohit in 1999. He took admission that year. In the first year, he was in under 14. During practice, I kept making him bowl. Next year, Rohit went to 8th standard and was 14 years old. ' Poll What do you think was the key factor in Rohit Sharma's success as a cricketer? Natural talent Coaching and guidance Hard work and determination Opportunities to showcase skills The turning point came unexpectedly. 'One day, while entering the school, I saw a boy knocking (batting). From outside, I saw the bat was coming very straight and good. I didn't know it was Rohit at first. When I went inside, I asked him if he was batting. He said yes, sir. Then I gave him some batting in the nets at number six or seven. Before that, I had never given him batting practice. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Certificate in Technology MIT-TLIP Apply Now Undo That was my mistake,' Lad admitted. Rohit soon proved his worth with the bat. 'He batted well. In a match, he went in at number seven and scored 40 runs — a very good 40. The way he was batting, I felt he had a very good talent for batting. A thought came to my mind: it would be good to make him open. He was very happy when I asked, and scored 140 runs as an opener. That's when I knew he should focus more on batting.' The rest, as they say, is history — with Rohit Sharma going on to become one of the finest opening batters of his era, famed for his elegance, timing, and unmatched pull shot.

The ball flies here—you have to serve precisely, with good pace.' Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW!

In the second set, Sinner mixed his trademark power with deft touches, thrilling the Cincinnati crowd with a disguised drop shot in the third game and wrapping up the match with clinical precision. "I served where I wanted today,' he added. 'There's still room to improve, but I couldn't have asked for more,' said Sinner, as quoted by IANS. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help!
