Description
Can a nightmare leave you nostalgic? Yes - if you are an India cricket fan whose formative years were the 90s! That glorious decade that continues to hold us to ransom in its thrall, subjecting us to the sporting equivalent of Stockholm Syndrome. In Episode 81 of Bits and Pieces, the gang is fittingly joined by Sidvee, who is the founder and host of the 81 all out podcast, in addition to all the other awesome things he does. This episode is a break from our regular programming, as Tony, PGK and Nitin relive the 90s alongside Sidvee. From Srinath lengths to Sidhu's strokelessness, Sachin's haplessness to Sanjay's hopelessness, Kumble's pace to Prasad's lack of it, Javed's six and the enduring Sharjah hoodoo, Sourav's eyesight, the one-stop solution to every problem dogging Indian cricket from the openers who can't keep batting, to openings for keeping (ie Mongia), from Azhar's wristwork to his hazaar wrist watches - no holy cow is spared. Grab a drink and tune in for the nervous 90s. Find us on Twitter: 1. Sidvee: ⁠https://twitter.com/sidvee⁠ 2. 81 all-out: ⁠https://twitter.com/81allout⁠ 3.
