As we go gaga over Kohli’s 34th ODI and Dhawan’s 100 in 100th ODI , the silent ones achieved few milestones away from all the limelight and monopoly on the game.
Rangana Herath , became the highest wicket taking left arm bowler in test cricket moving ahead of the great Wasim Akram.
Afghanistan for the benefit of themselves and the mankind , making a statement in different kind of battle picking up modern day weapons of cricket bat and ball to demolish Zimbabwe through superlative performance in ODIs.
Slinga Malinga hanged his shoes in a quiet manner making himself a backroom boy for the Mumbai Indians.
Doug Bollinger after scaring few opponents for a short period for Kangaroos, calling it curtains down without a noise.
Smriti Mandhana achieving Kohlian heights and making South African women run all around the boundary ropes in a dominating hundred whereas Jhulan Goswami became the first woman cricketer to reach milestone of 200 ODI wickets . “Beti Bachao ....” true ambassadors of the game.
Ice cricket challenge conceptualised in Swiss alps for new 20-20 entrant of winter sports .The oldies had a gala time and who knows ? Maybe cricket going The Europe way !!
And past legends urging BCCI to come out with some noble cause on the lines of McGrath foundation or pink battle for the men.
So all’s we’ll that ends well in this beautiful game of a cricket and that too in just a week .
Who will say week is short when 22 yards can offer so much diversity 😊
