The fans at the Cricket Club of India pavilion end were less partisan yesterday and thank heavens for that.
The fans at the Cricket Club of India pavilion end were less partisan yesterday and thank heavens for that. Sure, they cheered like crazy for Sachin and his Mumbai Indians but they also reserved some applause for good performances in the Delhi camp.
Karsan Ghavri, the former India all-rounder (kaddubhai could bowl quick and take on the role of a left-arm spinner too apart from his gritty batting) played spectator after a decade yesterday. He has been involved in the game as a coach after hanging his boots but this was the first time he could watch a match with a free mind. Normally, a former cricketer is restrained in cheering but Kaddubhai went all the way and made himself heard. "I love this form of the game... so very exciting," he said. Karsan Devjibhai Ghavri, we love your attitude!
