India stumper Wriddhiman Saha with his father Prashanta

There are two doting dads in South Kolkata's Saha household. There is "younger dad" Wriddhiman, who recently became father for the second time and is tending to his infant son Anve.And there is Wriddhiman's father Prashanta, who is also performing his parental duty—ensuring that India's most technically accomplished wicketkeeper's hand-eye co-ordination remains top notch. Saha senior is helping his son with 'keeping drills inside their spacious South City apartment.

"Whatever drills possible in the confines of my apartment, I am doing that. So I do a lot of hand-eye coordination drills which are a must for 'keepers. At times, I am throwing a softball against the wall and catching to get the feel," Wriddhiman said. "At times, my father [Prashanta Saha] is helping me inside the flat," he said. Is there enough space to manoeuvre and catch? Luckily for Saha, there is. "Yes, I can move sideways and catch."
