The making of Under-19 World Cup hero Raj Bawa
The Hindu
The all-rounder watched Yuvraj Singh train under his dad and soon the former India star became the young boy’s role model
Raj Angad Bawa was just another happy-go-lucky kid, who effortlessly got good grades in school and loved to groove to the beats of Bhangra till he was 13 years old.
With the hill-station of Dharamsala hosting an international cricket match back in the day, DAV Chandigarh's cricket coach Sukhwinder Singh Bawa decided to take his teenager son to watch the game.
Something changed in little Raj and as a father, for Sukhwinder it didn't go unnoticed that his son's focus shifted with nimble "footsteps" making way for deft "footwork". And the result was an all-rounder performance at the global stage albeit at the junior level.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
