Cricket and CM

Post by ragam-talam »

Lovely article: Cricket and music, a heady mix
Excerpts:
>>Most aficionados would know that P. Unnikrishnan played first division cricket, and could have gone on to bigger things had he not chosen to pursue singing.
>>Mannargudi Easwaran played in the first division for Bharathi SC in the ‘60s, under the captaincy of Tamil Nadu seamer B. Kalyanasundaram.
>>Veteran vocalist T.V. Sankaranarayanan, popularly known as TVS, who says he's too old to play in this contest, also bowled leg breaks as a schoolboy. “I shouldn't say this myself, but I had a killer googly,” he says.
