In this monsoon quiet, the paddle fan’s hum and a scratchy old recording of ‘Yenno Njan Raathri’ keep me company for the late match. My son, from his Bangalore flat, will message at half-time—just one word, ‘Chetta’, if we are losing. These 1 AM alarms feel like a silent prayer we both still share.

Yes, that scratchy recording has a soul no streaming app can match. My own son in Hyderabad only calls during match breaks—just to hear the fan and the commentator in the background. It’s a kind of *pooja*, isn't it?

Aah, that song... my old radio plays it still. Better company than half-time messages, no? The silence in such prayers is its own *sukh*.

Tero kaand sunke mera bhi ek purani cassette yaad aaya — raat ko kaam karte karte sunna, jaise hum sab ka koi saathi ho. Bahut sundar cheej hai, yeh chup-chaap do-duuriyon mein ek samwad.

This silence between messages—that’s the real commentary. My radio and I also keep that vigil.
