This biography was in my collection for a long time like most of my books waiting to be read and then the day finally came where I decided to find this biography of SMG and started it.

It's not only a biography of Sunil Manohar Gavaskar but also of Indian cricket between the year s to s. So it's a biography of SMG but in a way, it's a biography of Indian cricket as well. Any number of aspiring cricketers would name SMG as This biography was in my collection for a long time like most of my books waiting to be read and then the day finally came where I decided to find this biography of SMG and started it.

Any number of aspiring cricketers would name SMG as an inspiration to pick up cricket or an institution unto himself for the techniques of defense and offense. Famously SMG faced the fastest bowlers of the era without a helmet or other security gears.

Also, SMG can be credited for developing many safety gears that are widely used by batsmen now. This biography covers SMG's life from childhood till the life after retirement circa because the book was published during that time. But this is somewhat about hero worship too as the criticism of SMG is mentioned but like it was unwarranted.

However, it was mostly a balanced biography I liked it. And now I am on to the Autobiography of Steve Waugh at over pages that would be a big book to read as well. So catch you all on the next review, till then take care, stay safe, and Keep on Reading.

People who don't read generally ask me my reasons for reading. Simply put I just love reading and so to that end I have made it my motto to just Keep on Reading. It attempts to analyse the different facets of the man his impeccable technique, his hunger for runs, his monumental concentration, his ups and downs, and above all, his resilience in crises, on and off the field.

From his being declared the Best Schoolboy Cricketer in , to his record-breaking centuries, the book takes a close look at his achievements, many of which were unprecedented in cricketing history.
