Mithun: Have muscle, will bowl hard

It has been an impressive Test debut for Karnataka's Abhimanyu Mithun so far. Amol Karhadkar in the Hindustan Times writes that what makes Mithun stand out is his stint as an athlete during his teenage years as well as the support he received from his father who is a trainer.

“One of the main things is his father himself is a trainer, so he’s into gym from a very young age and he has been absolutely fit,” said Karnataka coach Sanath Kumar.
