My Autobiography – Anandji Dossa’s huge compliments

My Autobiography – Anandji Dossa’s huge compliments

I apologise for having discontinued posting the excerpts of my Autobiography. The main reason was dual fold. First we have shifted our residence from Vasanthnagar to Jayanagar Seventh Block and the second was the availability of Internet connection. I assure you that there would be no break till the completion of posting the final excerpt

I had already started contributions to Sportstar – a weekly tabloid from The Hindu Group of Publications, Madras, and courtesy Rajan Bala.  Sri Sunder Rajan, an Iyengar from Mysore was its first editor. He wrote me a letter requesting an article on five decades of Indian cricket. The lay our formalities were left to me. I sought the advice of Rajan Bala and sent the article to Sportstar. It was published in two issues – three decades on one issue and two decades in another issue.

I had reached Bombay to attend the Golden Jubilee Test and was sitting in the pavilion with the commentators who were to broadcast the game. Sri Ananda Rao who was one of the commentators of the match and Bishen Singh Bedi who had a long walk on the periphery of the stadium came to me. Bishen Singh Bedi asked me, “Gopal, where is the next issue?”. He had gone through the article on three decades and was eager to read the article on next two decades. I told him that the magazine is expected to hit the stands next day.

Anandji Dossa complemented me that “you are the first statistician in the Indian cricket history to write the Descriptive Statistics”. Statistics of Indian cricket till then meant the batting and bowling averages of the players at the end of the series/season.

I wrote for Sportstar for eight consecutive years. One issue used to contain three to four statistical articles. They used to publish sometimes under my initials “HRG” and sometimes with my full name “H.R. Gopala Krishna”
