A Dash Of Tiger In Virat
Sportstar
|March 24, 2018
A few years back, I had said that Virat Kohli will bring a more dashing edge to the captaincy like Tiger Pataudi did in the 1960s. At that time it was not known that he was dating a film star like Tiger did, but it was simply the way he carried himself on the field.
It was great fun to celebrate Farokh Engineer’s 80th birthday at the Della Adventure and Training Academy (DATA) in Lonavala. Jimmy Mistry, the young and energetic owner of the adventure resorts, has taken a terrific initiative in starting this academy, which is based on military theme and teaches civilians about counter terrorism, survival techniques and jungle survival. The venue was apt as Farokh was a totally adventurous cricketer and is still an adventurous soul. Driving to the academy from the sylvan surroundings of the resort was a bonejarring experience, but absolutely worth it as one got to meet not just Farokh and other guests, but some of the men who guard our borders and allow us to sleep peacefully in our home.
