Rachin Ravindra has been in the news ever since he played his first game in India, not only for his game but also for his name as well. When he was asked about his name, Rachin said it was a mixture of his father's two favorite players - Rahul Dravid and Sachin

Tendulkar. Incidentally, Rahul Dravid is leading India in his first series as the full-time coach.

But in the Test series, Rachin has encountered another namesake of his - Ravindra Jadeja. Apart from the similar names, the two also wear the same jersey number - 8, bowl slow left-arm spin, and bat left-handed.
