‘Who Praveen Tambe?’ This is the name of the film which is based on the life of Pravin Tambe of Rajasthan Royals who made his IPL debut at the age of 41. Shreyas Talpade will be seen in an important role in this Tambe biopic. Even before this, he has played the role of a cricketer (bowler) in his first movie Iqbal.
The trailer of this upcoming biopic on Pravin Tambe was released on Thursday. The film will premiere on Hotstar, the date of which is yet to come. The actor shared the trailer of the film on his Instagram account. He also wrote a huge caption in which the special first line was “Just one more over” – reaching the biggest league in the world! Wow Praveen Tambe what a story yours!”
It starts with the speech of the current head coach of Team India, Rahul Dravid. Dravid says that today we will talk about the one whom I have known for the last few years. Often people come and want to know about Sachin, Ganguly, Laxman, Kumble. But today I will talk about Praveen Tambe. After this the story of the leg break bowler of Rajasthan Royals will start.
Praveen Tambe made his debut for Rajasthan in the 2013 IPL at the age of 41. The last match he played in IPL was against RCB for Gujarat Lions in 2016. Apart from this, he made his Ranji debut for Mumbai in 2013 and Vijay Hazare Trophy in 2017. He has also played in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) and the Abu Dhabi T10 League.
In the recent 2021 edition of the Abu Dhabi T10 League, Praveen Tambe played cricket for Maratha Arabians even at the age of 49. Prior to this, he was also a part of Shahrukh Khan’s team Trinbago Knight Riders in the 2020 Caribbean Premier League. During his career, many problems like age, accident, job, family maintenance came in front of him but he never gave up.
Kaun Praveen Tambe trailer shows that Praveen Tambe was a medium pacer in the early days. From street cricket, tennis ball cricket, office cricket, he has traveled to the biggest league in the world. But today he is not a medium pacer but a leg break bowler. This advice was given to him by his coach at the age of 35.
There is a dialogue of Shreyas Talpade in this film that, Sir, I do not believe in this edge. Praveen Tambe proved this in real life as well and played the first IPL match for Rajasthan Royals at the age of 41. Even today he is not sitting still and is playing in different T20, T10 leagues of the world and trying himself. He has taken 28 wickets in 33 IPL matches at an economy of 7.75 and an average of 30.46.
