.......talking about people like Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi.....
or about Rahul Dravid, of Kumar Sangakkara, or Lionel Messi.....
or whoever one admires -
it's not so much about the game, for me....because there is precious little I know either about cricket or football....
for me it is always the person...I keep thinking about what might be going on in their minds, what kind of life do they live, what kind of people are in their lives, how are they like as people...
it's also about the way they conduct themselves on the playing field...
it's about the way they play...the beauty of the way they play...
it's about the way in they handle success and failure on the field...
it's about the way they work with their mates...
