At the official launch of Shades of Blue: Connecting the Drops in India's Cities. An very engaging conversation with S. Giridhar, a lovely audience and a super quiz by Ludwig. Thank you all for coming ! with Harini Nagendra Azim Premji University P.

Cricket lovers will be happy to see the new edition of S. Giridhar by S. Giridhar and V. J Raghunath. amazon.in/Mid-Wicket-Tal…

When I wrote 'Ordinary People, Extraordinary Teachers' my heart filled in a manner that cannot be described. Now, when Mid-wicket Tales (with friend Raghunath) gets a 2nd innings, the heart fills the same way. The timing seems perfect:) #CricketWorldCup2023 Speaking Tiger

The Hindu's review of Mid-wicket Tales first edition was written by late S. Dinakar. A kind, gentle person and superb cricket analyst; his nuanced technical observations were terrific. The quote brought back memories. KC Vijaya Kumar Vijay Lokapally 🇮🇳 The Hindu - Sports Speaking Tiger

Thanks Speaking Tiger and Scroll.in. In fact Scroll has been kind to feature extracts from our previous cricket book (From Mumbai to Durban: India's Greatest Tests) and from my book on heroic govt school teachers (Ordinary People, Extraordinary Teachers) #CricketWorldCup2023

Raghu and I have watched great Tests together since 1984. Including the Tied Test of 1986. And writing together on cricket for many years. "Mid-wicket Tales" has a special place in our hearts. Speaking Tiger #CricketWorldCup2023

Apart from our own 'Mid-wicket Tales: A Century and More of Cricket', three other books - 'The Great Indian Cricket Circus''; Indian Cricket: Then and Now' and 'The Lords of Wankhede' have also been released. Hopefully, a fine spread for cricket lovers #ICCWorldCup2023

Extend it even further Speaking Tiger, :) after all Kohli has now hit his 50th ODI ton and we await the final ! #WorldCup2023Semifinal

Thank you Gulu Ezekiel. We were hoping that the new essays will sit in seamlessly with the old ones. Glad you like them. Raghu and I enjoyed writing the final chapter. Arguing, analyzing, and putting it all on paper:) #ICCWorldCup2023

The second part of the essay is our memorable evening with M S Dhoni in 2017. And that happened because of Col Vembu Shankar vembushankar

Was a privilege to participate in the cricket panel discussion. Very touched that Right Horizons Financial Services Pvt Ltd gifted each of their guests a copy of our recently released book, "Mid-wicket Tales: A century and More of Cricket" to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

We had a great time doing this podcast. Thank you for featuring "Mid-wicket Tales: A Century and More of Cricket" so lovingly. Four cricket romantics, cricket stories, analysis and opinions, lots of laughter too! Speaking Tiger #cricketbooks

Cricket lovers, mark your calendars! I’m going to be in conversation with Giridhar S.

RSVP now! bangaloreinternationalcentre.org/event/from-pit…

6.30 PM, 7th December at BIC: Inviting cricket lovers in Bengaluru to a discussion on all matters cricket. Raghunath and I will be in conversation with Quiz Master Venkatesh Srinivasan. To mark recent launch of our book "Mid-wicket Tales: A Century and More of Cricket"

in Jan 2020, launched my book, 'Ordinary People, Extraordinary Teachers' at the same venue - BIC. Now, looking forward to tomorrow's discussion, this time on our cricket book. Thank you Bangalore International Centre, Speaking Tiger and Quiz master Venky Srinivasan

An absolutely beautiful session at Bangalore International Centre conducted by Venky Srinivasan with the authors of these two books, latest additions to my sports book collection. From the stories that Giridhar sir and Raghunath sir shared, I am sure these will be books that every cricket fan would treasure.

A very special feeling. Two BITSIANS, Subodh Kolhe Satya Dash - graduated perhaps 30+ years after me - but coming to our book launch, getting copies of 'Mid-wicket Tales' signed because the author is fellow BITSIAN. Touched, thank you! Speaking Tiger Bangalore International Centre Venky Srinivasan

Mid-wicket Tales keeps happily surprising us. Humbled and delighted that the updated, revised edition made the shortlist. A good time to again thank the many friends and colleagues at Azim Premji Foundation for all their help. Speaking Tiger Azim Premji University #cricketbooks

That is very kind! The winner, the delightful book by Sridhar. I loved reviewing it for Deccan Herald some months ago. Speaking Tiger Azim Premji University Harsha Bhogle wrote the foreword for the first edition. Salim Durani gave us our first essay. Many happy memories...

Thank you for your kind words TITASH BANERJEA. And now, congratulations to you and Shom Biswas for your most interesting 'Off Spins, Sixes and Surprises'. To capture nearly every key moment in Indian cricket in less than 300 pages, is just love for the sport.
