beLATEed happy birthday azhu bai,you showed the world that cricket is not just played in the stadium,it is extended beyond the 22 yards!!
Cricket is a time wasting game, where there are 10 players watching the ball on the field and 9 fellows sitting out side. Just looking out when they will get a chance. Countries like BRAZIL, ITALY, FRANCE, SPAIN, MEXICO etc dont like to play this game cause it is a waste of time and does not gain international recognation. It is just Indian people who like cricket cause they dont have any other work. There are only 10 countries playing cricket and most of them are also not fully intrested, the other countries like Canada, UAE are forced to play. I hope people agree with me and not criticize me....
Not many know about Vishy.. the great.! Your slides has just given glimpse of it.! India and the world Cricket can never and will never forget Vishy... a great gentleman cricketer.! Wishing many many happy returns of the day!
You are an Icon to the Indian Cricket. You showed the world that we Indians could bat against the Fast bowlers at thier home grounds and on thier terms. Nobody can forget your 97 Not out against the WI at Chepauk which I believe is still the best ever by an Indian.
May God bless you...and Hope the current crop if Indian players take a leaf out of your sportsmanship and humility.
