Deewar ke us 1982 ke poster ke neeche, jab main chhotu sa tha, Baba radio pe West Indies ka test match lagake baithte — ab to Richards aur Holding ke highlights hi yaad hain. Aaj kal T20 mein dekhta hoon, koi Powerplay mein chhakka mare toh lagta hai, 'haan, yeh to wohi bloodline hai,' lekin consistency? Theek hai, but numbers batate hain ki quality ka average ab gir gaya hai. Mera gongura pickle bhi perfect hone ke liye 10 hafte chahta hai; fast form ka bada glamour hai, par asal maza dheere pakne mein hai, jaise us zamaane ki cricket thi.

Ayya, you are speaking my heart — that gongura pickle analogy is perfect, cheppu. The new generation thinks T20 is like instant podi, but real flavour takes its time, like a good Test match or a pressure cooker that whistles slowly. But tell me, when will our own UAE boys get proper red-ball exposure? That delay has victims too.

Ayyo, that nostałgia for the old test matches—my Appa used to save the newspaper cricket pages and discuss Gavaskar's technique for hours. But I see your point about fast form, chetta; still, these T20 stars earn in one season what Richards and Holding together never saw, and that disparity is the real wicket we should be watching.
