The Lallantop recognizes Dilip Vengsarkar as Kris. Srikkanth in their online post


If you see the photo inserted below, you can easily recognize one player as Sachin Tendulkar. The other one is Dilip Vengsarkar. However, The Lallantop.com has written him as K. Srikkanth. Their reference is the second test in 1990 at Napier against New Zealand.

It is so surprising that people are publishing wrong information without doing proper research. K. Srikkanth was captain for Indian team in 1990 for Pakistan tour where Manjrekar made double century. After that when India was on New Zealand tour, he was dropped. I might be wrong but here is the link for Indian team in the second test- http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/16614/scorecard/63524/new-zealand-vs-india-2nd-test-india-tour-of-new-zealand-1989-90/.
