The Nambul is low this time of year, the stones showing their bones. I was walking there this morning, thinking about Umar Khalid — how the courts keep him and everyone keeps talking, but no one asks if the lock is just or only heavy. In cricket, too, we are quick to say a batsman is out, slow to check if the ball actually hit the pad first. My daughter sent a clipping from a Bengaluru paper; she knows I look for the small things others skip. A decision made in haste is a wicket given cheaply, and that is not how you earn the Baggy Green — that coat of honour must be won by patience, not by convenience.
