Cricket covered with depth and humor
Thank you for having Osman Samiuddin on to talk about his life and his book. For a Pak-American who came to cricket fandom later in adulthood, it was a beautiful and enlightening conversation. There’s something a little otherworldly about cricket from an American immigrant point of view in that it’s a window into a shared colonial past (given the game’s roots) and a glimpse into cultures across the world (including the culture of one’s roots). There’s something real about haal I think. Not everything can be quantified. Many things, but not everything. I think one of those things that demand qualitative evaluation are cultural passions, including the peculiar madness that is Pakistan cricket fandom. Thanks again to you and Osman. I’ll be sending in some support and will be looking for any Pakistan related episodes in your back catalogue. All the best.

More reviews of 81 All Out - A Cricket Podcast
It’s so great to listen to a familiar voice talking about things that I am totally unfamiliar about. Slowly rediscovering my love for cricket with the lilting sounds of the “ bangalore accent” and the sharp wit of one of the brightest minds I ve ever had a chance to meet!
