The Duke of Dorchester once said, “What is human life but a game of cricket?” We believe that analogy has stood the test of time with cricket lovers all over the globe drawing parallels between their beloved sport and life in general. We also believe that life is a great journey – just like a Test match – there are sessions – each one different from the other. A lull may be followed by a fightback. And yes, if you ever fail, there is always a second innings to bounce back. Introducing Stumps & Stories Podcast, where we (Nishad Pai Vaidya & Team) explore such journeys and bring to you a different side of cricket and cricketers – with great memories, a laugh or two, and some inspiration to top it all.

The historic 1992 tour to South Africa, managing the Indian cricket team and more ft. Amrit Mathur
On this episode of Stumps and Stories, Amrit Mathur joins Nishad Pai Vaidya to look back at his journey in Indian cricket. Mathur is a veteran cricket administrator, who has worked in the Indian system for over three decades. In 1992, he was appointed the manager of the Indian team for the path-breaking tour to South Africa. He then went on to manage the Indian team on a few subsequent tours and also worked as a COO with Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals) during the early years of the IPL. In this chat, Mathur looks back at the 1992 tour and also reflects on his various experiences. He recently wrote the book Pitchside, which gives an account of his journey in Indian cricket.
