<p>While elder son Tej Pratap is undergoing a flying course to get a Commercial Pilot License (CPL) at Bihar Flying Institute in Patna, the younger one, Tejaswi Yadav has padded up again for the game he knows the best—-cricket.<br /><br />Tejaswi, who earlier played for Delhi Daredevils in the T20 tournament, will soon be batting on a neighbouring turf in the Jharkhand Premier League (JPL). “Tejaswi has been purchased by the Jamshedpur Jaanbaaz team for a sum of Rs 1,31,500. He is the second most expensive player after its captain Mihir Diwakar,” said NK Singh, owner of Jamshedpur Jaanbaaz.<br /><br />Singh insisted that he opted for Tejaswi considering his calibre. “Our experts had kept an eye on him ever since he started playing for Delhi Daredevils,” Singh said, adding that: “As of now, he should focus on cricket, not politics.” <br /><br />Singh’s statement assumes significance as Tejaswi had campaigned for his mother Rabri <br />Devi and other RJD candidates during the last Bihar Assembly elections. The JPL, which is slated to be held from March 13 to March 19, will have participants like Ranchi Rangers, Bokaro Bulls, Singhbhum Sher, apart from the Jamshedpur team.<br /><br />On the other hand, Tej Pratap is undergoing the pre-solo stage of training during which a trainee flies an aircraft with an instructor on board. Tej Pratap has so far finished seven out of 40 hours of flying. The media-shy Tej is one of the most disciplined students of the batch, which went rolling since July 2010. Tej will have to shell out nearly Rs 7 lakh before he adorns a commercial pilot cap.<br /></p>
