The earliest and the most influential source of inspiration is often drawn from the family. Growing up under the umbrella held by the expert himself, Mohinder Amarnath’s case was no different. “My father was very inspiring,” he says when questioned about Lala Amarnath as a father figure. Children do emulate the ways and paths once trotted by their parents. But with Mohinder, his father’s unspoken desire to shoulder the legacy weighed on his thoughts. “My dad wanted his sons to carry on the legacy. I remember in childhood days, my dad ensured that we played cricket thoroughly. Dad started to make me practice cricket seriously when I was 10,” recalls Mohinder Amarnath. The scions of Lala Amarnath owe much credit for the paradigm shift from a legendary name to an acclaimed dynasty. Guided by the mighty shadow, both Mohinder Amarnath Bhardwaj and Surinder Amarnath Bhardwaj won the privilege of playing in packed stadia full of spectators cheering for the Indian team. Known to decimate the fieriest of bowling attacks, Surinder replicated his father’s record of a Test debut centurion, which also happened to be the 100th Test century of India. Though Surinder’s career in international cricket was short lived, Mohinder brightened the family lamp with his tenacity, taking India to the only World Cup victory till date.
Commenting on modern cricket, Mohinder feels that now things are tougher for a player to find a spot in the national team in spite of having a family history with the game; reason being that there is no dearth of talent and only the outstanding are selected. Amarnath also makes appearances in shows for expert opinions and states, “My favourites are Brian Lara, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and Ricky Ponting, who is a good captain and a fantastic player.”
