Mukul Kesavan

Hey Virat, you're the captain of the Indian cricket team, not Captain India

Virat Kohli's trolling of a fan for preferring foreign batsmen to Indian ones comes from a place of thin-skinned privilege that's out of touch with reality

12-Nov-2018•Mukul Kesavan

The madness of Yuvraj Singh

Like against Pakistan last week, when he walks out onto the biggest stage, his eyes shine with a certain insanity

07-Jun-2017•Mukul Kesavan

Why is Pujara given short shrift?

He averages better than Rohit Sharma but still has to fight for a place in the Test side, mostly because he doesn't play ODIs

31-Aug-2015•Mukul Kesavan

Why the Ashes is watchable and Indian cricket isn't

There is nothing stimulating in watching a television broadcast in which the players and commentators allow themselves to be remote-controlled by the BCCI

21-Jul-2015•Mukul Kesavan

The emirate of Indian cricket and its subjects

What sort of cricketing culture sees conflict of interest as normal? The answer lies in the history of cricket administration in India

29-Jan-2015•Mukul Kesavan

An Indian original

As captain, MS Dhoni was wholly himself, unflappable, and a desi to boot

09-Jan-2015•Mukul Kesavan

We need to think about the role of the bouncer

To consider banning it in the wake of Phillip Hughes' death may be knee-jerk, but to refuse to consider the pros and cons of a ban is unwise

23-Dec-2014•Mukul Kesavan

Shades of Gavaskar

There's an implacable soundness about Cheteshwar Pujara, the best young batsman in the Test-playing world

04-Jan-2014•Mukul Kesavan

A farewell left too late

Tendulkar's legacy has been diminished by his long twilight, and the team he served for so long with such distinction has been damaged too

14-Oct-2013•Mukul Kesavan

Why laissez faire won't do for Test cricket

For the five-day game to survive, we need a BCCI that harnesses the market and tempers its profit-maximising logic to create a stable environment for the format

24-Jun-2012•Mukul Kesavan

How not to close a great career

Sachin Tendulkar's media blitz in the wake of his 100th hundred has been unseemly and cheapens his legacy

08-Apr-2012•Mukul Kesavan

Why the 100th doesn't matter

An "international hundred" is an artificial landmark and we don't need to be flying into a frenzy because Tendulkar is on the brink of a hundred of those

03-Dec-2011•Mukul Kesavan

Cricket's modern Zen master

It is tempting to see Virender Sehwag as a product of the limited-overs age, but he uses more or less orthodox strokes. The key to his success is that he has the ability to live in the present

08-Nov-2010•Mukul Kesavan

Haunted by virtue

A drug-testing regime as invasive as WADA's needs to be vigorously debated, and thanks to the opposition from India's cricketers maybe it will now be

10-Aug-2009•Mukul Kesavan

Lessons from Lahore

The notion of cricketers being immune to attacks was a myth that should never have been put to the test

05-Mar-2009

Easy lies the head

Dhoni is different from other India captains, principally in the poise and calm he brings to the role

28-Oct-2008

The last tour

Why the Australia series marks the end of India's great middle order, and even, possibly, of the primacy of Test cricket

25-Sep-2008

Spin kills

Never before Mendis has a spinner dominated Indian batsmen so comprehensively and collectively

22-Aug-2008•Mukul Kesavan

The politics of morality

The West's hypocrisy over Zimbabwe may feel obnoxious, but the BCCI has to decide whether it wishes to be the patron-in-chief of a dysfunctional and compromised cricket body

03-Jul-2008

V for Vendetta

Try as it may, it will take the BCCI some effort to make people believe legends like Kapil Dev didn't exist
