“The title of this podcast series is an amusing nod to one of India’s inglorious cricket test performances abroad. (the star cast of VVS, Dravid, Tendulkar, Ganguly and Azhar were bowled out for 81 in an unpredictable Barbados pitch while chasing 120 in Brian Lara’s first bout as captain).
However, this title is not suggestive to the content of the episodes. This isn’t about the Indian cricket team’s failures abroad that fans (like me) growing up in the 90’s were accustomed to witnessing. This long-form podcast series takes an in-depth look at the finer and not-so-obvious facets of the game of cricket.
Seasoned cricket journalist (ex-Wisden Cricinfo) and writer Siddhartha Vaidyanathan (@sidvee on Twitter) brings in special guests on each episode to dissect, deliberate and at most times joyfully reminisce the game. What sets the show apart is that it goes beyond conventional banalities to explore deeper themes and narratives both from the ringside press-box view and at the same time as a fan watching the game from a distance.
Immersive details, witty anecdotes and incredible storytelling from Siddhartha and his guests make this an enjoyable listen setting me back into nostalgia whilst educating us about aspects of the game that we were missing from mere scorecards and live commentary. A must subscribe for any cricket fan and a worthy listen for any sports fan keen on understanding as to what makes cricket capture the imagination of so many aficionados around the world.”

“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...”Read full review »
