Love of cricket
The HinduCricket teases out character in those who play it. "Cricket is my source of energy," he said in the last piece he wrote, one that ended mid-sentence with the word “and.” The symbolism is inescapable. When he first walked into my office at Wisden India Almanack, he said international cricket could take care of itself, he was focused on the neglected: juniors, under-19 and, above all, women's cricket. His book on the history of women's cricket in India, The Fire Burns Blue is a seminal work. Soon he was out of the ICU — he had asked for an “extension” so he could complete his Almanack work — and back home.
