R...vividly remember ravi's progress as an UMP!<br /><br />RECALL he bowled fastish left arm spinners,and on matting , on his day was quite the DEREK UNDEREWOOD kind!<br /><br />steadfast,stonewaller as an opener too!<br /><br />may be reckoned early that he did not quite have the fitness to aspire higher as a player in a political infested state,he chucked his hat in the ring to do the hard yards as an ump. at an early age..that he was RBI helped him, given he did not have to worry about job security etc etc..<br />having stood and excelled n the heat of many a sr. div encounter,he shaped his tough methods,and being a player himself,he knew the value of fitness too!<br /><br />He could not have worked longer n a tough circuit,where tempers flared and tension reigned unabated!<br /><br />good luck to ravi and kudos to you too prabhu for the effort to highlight the path of an un-glamourous aspirant to a real underrated,thankless role!<br /><br />pattabhi<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602595265633639540.post-75851218562332421842013-08-17T13:50:04.764+05:302013-08-17T13:50:04.764+05:30Best Wishes to Mr Ravi!!
