The Glorious Boredom Of Test Cricket
The Glorious Boredom Of Test Cricket Partha Sinha Jul 18, 2025, 20:38 IST IST The ongoing India-England series is a quiet resurrection of the classical form of the game There was a time, not too long ago, when cricket started to resemble a badly dubbed action film. Overloaded with explosions, starved of script. The game got faster, louder, and somehow emptier. In trying to make cricket more 'watchable', we quietly removed the cricket from cricket. T20 was the gateway drug. IPL was the overdose. What remained was a sport that dressed like cricket but talked like TikTok. Bollywood's mascara on baseball's pace. Everything became a number. Strike rates, economy rates, impact scores. If you couldn't clear the ropes every five balls, you were baggage. Bowlers were reduced to radar guns. And fielding? That became LinkedIn with turf burns. Dives done more for the CV than the scoreboard.

Adnan Sami Recalls Lata Mangeshkar Singing To His Ailing Father: ‘There Were Tears In His Eyes'
Adnan Sami recalls the emotional moment when Lata Mangeshkar sang to his ailing father on his deathbed, calling it one of the most touching memories of his life. Singer Adnan Sami recently offered a heartfelt glimpse into his cherished relationship with the legendary Lata Mangeshkar, reflecting on the immense personal and emotional impact she had on his family. In a conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Sami revealed that his late father, Arshad Sami Khan, was an ardent admirer of the iconic singer and that her lullaby 'Dheere Se Aaja Ri Ankhiyan Mein" held a special place in their hearts. 'Beyond being the Bharat Ratna, beyond being the Nightingale of India, she was the ultimate voice that graced the microphones and speakers of this country," Sami said, paying tribute to Mangeshkar's unparalleled legacy. He further shared that his father, who was well-versed in her repertoire, idolised her throughout his life. 'She was my father's favourite. He grew up listening to her and could sing all her songs. So, collaborating with her was not just a professional milestone—it was deeply personal. It made my father extraordinarily proud," he shared. The bond between Mangeshkar and the Sami family was further underscored during one of the most difficult times in their lives—when Arshad Sami was battling terminal pancreatic cancer. Recalling a deeply emotional moment, Adnan said, 'He was literally on his deathbed in Mumbai. Watching someone you love suffer like that makes you feel helpless. One day, I called didi and told her about his condition. She had met him years ago, and I hoped that just hearing her voice would lift his spirits." The call proved to be profoundly moving. 'I remember handing him the phone—he was stunned to hear her voice. His face lit up, and tears rolled down his cheeks as he spoke about how he'd been listening to her since childhood. She began singing to him. It brought him peace. That is where she stood with me," Sami said with emotion. Adnan also shared a more personal and tender side of their friendship—Lata Mangeshkar's fondness for his daughter, Medina. A passionate hobbyist of photography and editing, she would lovingly enhance the pictures Adnan shared of his daughter. 'When Medina was born, I would send her photos, and she would zoom in on details she found adorable, like her toe. She would colour correct and crop them. Even toward the end of her life, I kept sending her pictures, and she kept editing them. She was very special to me," he added. Lata Mangeshkar passed away on February 6, 2022, leaving behind a legacy that resonates across generations. For Adnan Sami, her memory lives on—not just through her timeless voice, but also through the intimate, meaningful moments they shared as friends and family.
