The heavens opened up on the evening of the last day in September as if to say we have not cried enough for Anandji Dossa, who passed away last week in New York at the age of 98.

Doubtless. the former statistician and scorer fully deserved every accolade showered on him at a condolence meeting organised at the Cricket Club of India-s CK Nayudu Hall, the very venue where Dossa was felicitated 11 years ago on April 12, 2003.
