Lovely piece, Sarthak! The universe (i.e., social media) should bring this to Pujara's attention. :)
My biggest regret was not getting a helmet as part of my first cricket kit. Helmets were the real deal, the true symbol of batsmanship. I would've settled for a motorbike helmet (the hard-hat variant) but I was asked to focus on my first season of cricket coaching. Helmets were promised in the second season. (There would not be a second season. I sucked at cricket.)
And hahaha 100% I never got a helmet in those junior cricket kits either. And did not have a second season with cricket xD Football took over and I didn't have to deal with a swinging leather ball haha.
What a marvelous tribute to a marvelous player! For sure, he will be reading this. I know it.
Thank you so much man :)
