Everyone who wrote about Kumble wrote from the heart, and not necessarily because they were cricket experts. In my eyes, , anyone can win, and I wish they had books for everyone. I did read your entry, and really enjoyed it, and learnt so many new things about Kumble. <br /><br />There is really no winning and losing here; just a grand celebration for a very very decent chap .....<br /><br />My best wishes to you ...Ugich Konitarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901335427613806798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-584707346292836642010-04-18T02:11:24.406+05:302010-04-18T02:11:24.406+05:30I've been following your blog for sometime now...I've been following your blog for sometime now and whenever I had the urge to comment I was in office where blogger comments are blocked:-( By the time I get home it slips away.<br />This time I decided to keep the promise to myself.<br />You are a lovely inspiration - I hope I can sustain my blog for long.<br /><br />It was a lovely tribute to one of my favourites. Made the other entries look ordinary ( mine was one) I'll never feel bad losing to such a lovely winner!<br /><br />I forwarded this link to all my friends and who are now huge fans of your writing!<br /><br />It's amazing you have the zest for the game at this age - awesome. My aaji was 83 when she passed away last Sep and she would be glued into all matches with us! <br /><br />sorry for the long comment - I hope you win and please do post a pic of that book. <br /><br />I will feel bad missing out on the book but if you win - no ways:-) I think I would savor it more!!!Minalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556930930046840091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-75817432727135362232010-04-16T03:07:04.513+05:302010-04-16T03:07:04.513+05:30You love your cricket.

I am one of those who is proud to read the yellow sign thats says 'Anil <br />Kumble Circle' whenever I pass by. A sensible move by those in power, for a change.<br /><br />I worry about the effect television will have on my almost-3 when he is a little older and wants to watch what is on offer. Even if I succeed in filtering <br />out objectionable programmes, there are the advertisements, news telecasts and cricket matches - they are not the same as in my growing up years. In these <br />times where aggressive behaviour, bullying, self centeredness rule, Kumble stands out as one of the last few gentlemen, measured in his ways, both on and off the field.<br /><br />Wish there were more gentlemen like Kumble around, for our children to have as role models.Arundhatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18175971860205359849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-69876306278528530112010-04-14T20:42:44.853+05:302010-04-14T20:42:44.853+05:30You are missed on Twitter!You are missed on Twitter!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-21824328769745965952010-04-14T20:39:06.783+05:302010-04-14T20:39:06.783+05:30"...whose feet always remain on the ground, f...<i>"...whose feet always remain on the ground, firmly anchored, who endorses wildlife, education, insurance companies, and gets appointed on retirement to the World Anti Doping agency(WADA)"</i><br /><br />These are the qualities I have always admired about him!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-82983411187535602222010-04-14T19:57:28.743+05:302010-04-14T19:57:28.743+05:30Wonderful post.
