So what's Phillip Hughes doing in Nagpur all of a sudden? To sharpen his skills with coach Neil D'Costa at the newly built academy. Seems like Australia's new kid is determined to recover his lost touch after his sudden blip in England. Peter Lalor of the Australian catches up with the two, where Hughes talks about England, and what else he intends to do in India.
Justin Langer thought he had met somebody on the same impassioned-plain when he received probing queries from the teenager via email some years back. Now the little opener is turning to the Little Master. He intends to fly to Mumbai on Monday and hopes to have dinner with Tendulkar. Hughes promises to gorge himself on cricket."I'll chew his ear off," he says with a laugh. "I've got questions about a lot of things that I want to ask him. I like getting around and talking to the guys who have been around for a long time."
