i watched cricket more as a form of art than as a sport..the master craftsmen, the artistes at work with lavish straight drives and elegant wristy leg glances and divine square cuts..all master pieces, priceless works of art...
with questions on the "fab four", and Sourav Ganguly's last test in the offing, my heart is heavy as the realisation dawned on me that this is the last that we cricket lovers shall see of these gems of strokes, the last of their makers too..
the twenty20 form has heralded the new dawn of brute force, of big shots and with the last of the best on the verge of bidding adieu it could be the end of cricket as we know it..
rest in peace, cricket.
long live cricket.
