Cactustrees · Jan 2024

Have checked out the vast majority of cricket podcasts. There’s a lot of decent ones but only a couple of outstanding ones. This is one of them. (Usually) Three Indians who have a global and historical awareness of the game beautifully bring it together in a sharp analytical arguments. There is one issue though. It's not frequent enough. Well done gents.

JanayRehmat · Aug 2022

Thank you for having Osman Samiuddin on to talk about his life and his book. For a Pak-American who came to cricket fandom later in adulthood, it was a beautiful and enlightening conversation. There’s something a little otherworldly about cricket from an American immigrant point of view in that it’s a window into a shared colonial past (given the game’s roots) and a glimpse into cultures across the world (including the culture of one’s roots). There’s something real about haal I think. Not everything can be quantified. Many things, but not everything. I think one of those things that demand qualitative evaluation are cultural passions, including the peculiar madness that is Pakistan cricket fandom. Thanks again to you and Osman. I’ll be sending in some support and will be looking for any Pakistan related episodes in your back catalogue. All the best.

Thoroughly enjoyed many of the podcasts - especially the discussion with Osman, the discussion with border and coward, the 2004 Ind Aus series, aus tour of 81. Would be great if you have a podcast of the pak tour of India 1979-80 and Ind tour of pak 1978 as well as India’s tour of West Indies in 1983.
