imperfect, sanjay manjrekar

I picked this book to understand what went wrong in the 90s with Indian cricket. And I was one of those that did.

Having read some excerpts of this book on a couple of newspapers, I got curious and wanted to read the full book. I did love the bits about the Mumbai cricket culture and how people (even some like the much maligned, and for good reasons, ShFinished this in a couple of hours.

No cricket romantic will ever feel bored reading this book.

Mohan Rakesh was a towering figure in Hindi fiction and drama. This is a slim book and would have been simpler if some of the repetitiveness had been avoided. I started this book intending to read about someone average.

He doesn't call himself an underachiever.

Only one chapter is dedicated to Manjrekar’s experiences as a commentator, a side of him I would’ve liked to know more.Sanju Manju is not the brilliant cricketer who needs to write an autobiography.

Nice observation.Mumbai cricket in our time which many people of this country don't know explained and their passion.

The book provided that and much more. I think it's the latter. The name imperfect attracted my attention. It's almost perfect (well..) in reliving Indian cricket of the 90s.. you know, those times when it was the perfect time to be Sachin Tendulkar and not much anybody else. He might have slowly joined that league now but he still seems like one of the better commentators among the current lot.3.5/5 This book has been recommended by podcasts as refreshingly honest and hence self-critical. Credit goes to goodreads as i came across imperfect while going through reviews about saurav's book. He names everyone he praises and does not name people he criticises.
