We learnt only to play straight. You sort of leant to adjust your bat speed and you learnt to either play forward or back. The best part or the worst part according to the way you saw it was that the umpires were all from the building so if they liked you, they would say not out they didn’t like you, you were given out.” He said laughingly.
Mr. Sam Balsara said, “There is nothing big in the country right now that cricket and politics. You are giving both these things to Indians in form of a game, you should hit jackpot with this.”
