Gone are the...

    Manee bhai, Let me dissect the Board Presidents xi a little further and add my take on it. Among the BP XI save one or two there is hardly any player in whom I could see that X factor or the oomph factor whatever they call it or someone who could be termed as a long term prospect...

    Talking about Mithun, what is of great importance to me is this great ability of him to bowl bouncers and that too from just short of a length, something which can unsettle any batsmen. To me this ability is key difference between a run of the mill fast medium bowler and a nippy if not fearsome...
