VISHY 60
by nallan srivatsan on Feb 12, 2009 04:04 PM

Congrats Haresh . I was really moved by ur article.Excellent depiction of great Vishy.Apt words,Deep analysis ,perfect puctuation with incidents & the flow of language-ALL EXCELLENT LIKE VISHY'S SQUARE CUT. I HAVE SAVED THE ARTCLE WHICH IS WORTH PRESERVING. You have also exposed the Mediocracy of selectors prevailing then,besides the humility of the person. Vishy never complained or went to media about his non selection unlike present day cricketers nor begged selectors to pick him again.He stands Dignified even today like his batsmanship.Ihave heard sunny profusely praising Vishy.The best I saw was ,in blore when vishy square drove a ball which whistled past clive lloyd , who was a best fielder & nothing could pass him 15 meters either side,He couldnot believe & acknowledged the shot by clapping.I was moved then also.VISHY IS A LEGEND. MAY HE LIVE LONGER.LET PRESENT BOSSES UTILISE HIM FOR THE BENIFIT OF INDIAN CRICKET.WELL DONE HARESH.
