Indian captain who's father was a novelist

Sachin Tendulkar's father, Ramesh Tendulkar, was a noted Marathi novelist and poet. He published novels and poetry in Marathi literature. This makes Tendulkar the correct answer among the options. The other captains' fathers were not novelists - Ganguly's father was a printing press owner, Wadekar's was a professor, and Kirmani's was not a novelist.
