“Want my Ashes to be scattered at the Oval Maidan at 8am when the sun is up & many games of cricket are underway.

Ok, this is amazing:

Thank you for this ride down memory lane @ClaytonMurzello
Blessed and lucky to have learnt the game of cricket from Anna and then Amar Vaidya Sir at Bengal Club, Shivaji Park. Absolute legends of #Mumbai cricket.
