Why LBW? What's in a Name?


When considering the stature of an athlete or for that matter any person, I set great store in certain qualities which I believe to be essential in addition to skill. They are that the person conducts his or her life with dignity, with integrity, courage, and perhaps most of all, with modesty.These virtues are totally compatible with pride, ambition and competitiveness.
-Sir Donald Bradman

Look, I must confess that right from my teenage days I got bowled over by cricket-an expression of life.It has virtually everything that life provides-winning ,losing, fair play, practice, commitment, team work, playing under pressure, camaraderie, contribution, patriotism, personal discipline what not, you name it, it's all there in cricket!
The truth is, I have always lived my life and my profession the cricket way!.
