Thank you, Sandeep! Haha, wasn't a shower thought unfortunately. I reached there through a far more boring route 😂
To me, Pant is completely unique in how he approaches batting. You can't box him. Which reminds me of Prince. And every time I think of or listen to Prince now, I am reminded of *that* performance of Purple Rain. So..
I love your similes (that's what they're called right?). How do you "show not tell" so beautifully, each time every time? You're the Prince of Sports Writing boss. And I mean the artist. Keep on at it. Now I know that the word awe-some OGed here, after your writing.
There's stuff flying around everywhere in this so maybe I missed the bit where the BCCI makes like the Buchanans, breaks everything to bits and does a runner. Or the media centre at Lord's monitors and menaces like the eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleberg. Or Pant beat on...or somesuch. Where The Great Gatsby has any relevance at all.
Incredible piece ! Connecting purple rain with rishab brain .. how did you come up with this ? A shower thought ?

Thank you so much, Renuka! :D So glad you enjoy the essays!
I am not even too fond of cricket, but I read it just to enjoy your writing Sarthak.
You're too kind, Rakhi :)
Terrific writing, man. Too many gems but Melon is top of the heap.
Haha thank you, Rohan!
And I was sure that was a typo. 😁
