Dravid pads up to bat with son Anvay in club match

Age is just a number for former India captain and coach Rahul Dravid, especially when it comes to play cricket.
He may be 52 years old, but Dravid has shown that his love for playing the sport hasn't diminished a bit, teaming up with his younger son Anvay (16) in a Sri Nassur Memorial Shield 3rd division game on Saturday.
Dravid senior, who came to bat at No 6, made 10 off eight balls with a boundary but Anvay scored 58 off 60 balls with eight fours as Vijaya amassed 345 for seven against Young Lions Club.
Swapnil was the top run-getter for the club with a 50-ball 107 with 12 fours and four sixes.
Anvay is a wicketkeeper-batter, while Samit, the elder son of Dravid, is a pace-bowling all-rounder.
AG Aditya took four wickets (4/60) for the Young Lions.
Dravid, who was in Guwahati for the Rajasthan Royals' pre-season camp, returned to the city a couple of days ago.
There are several instances of father-son duo playing in the same match at various levels such as WG Grace-Grace Jr, Lala-Surinder Amarnath, Dennis-Adam Lillee, Denis-Heath Streak, Shivnarine-Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Ian-Liam Botham among others.
