Yogesh Jagtap, the coach of Arya Gurukul, revealed after the match that they had struggled to enter the competition with their main cricket team because of their exams so 12 year old students were played against 15 year old students, and had entered the tournament only so they would not be denied future entry. He estimated there were 21 dropped [[Catch (cricket)|catches]] and three missed [[Stumped|stumpings]] during the single K. C. Gandhi innings. He also said some of the children in Arya Gurukul had only ever played with a tennis ball before and were scared of the [[Cricket ball|leather ball]].<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|title = Pranav Dhanawade's record feat hides more than it reveals – Times of India|url = http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/top-stories/Pranav-Dhanawades-record-feat-hides-more-than-it-reveals/articleshow/50463448.cms|website = The Times of India|accessdate = 8 January 2016}}</ref> Many were under 12 and much of the boundary was only {{Convert|30|yards|metres}} from the wicket.<ref name=":2" /><ref>{{Cite web|title = I can smash 12-year-olds too|url = http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/opinion/75741845/ben-strang-pranav-dhanawade-showed-terrible-sportsmanship-in-record-1009|website = Stuff|accessdate = 11 January 2016}}</ref>
