Pundits from Pakistan: On Tour with India, 2003-04 by Rahul Bhattacharya

4.0

4.5 stars. I am shamefully late at reading this but the distance in time I think enhanced my experience of the book. I love reading RB's writing on cricket and was already a fan going into this book. This cricket series is one of my favorites that I remember following closely and the book brought back the heady nostalgia of all the hullabaloo that surrounded it. The book is funny, thoughtful, thrilling, sensitive, part travelogue, part match analysis, part memoir and such a fantastic read overall. Despite knowing the outcome of all the matches, the cricketing bits were also thrilling to read. It made me cry and laugh and just soak in the wonderfulness of that time. Pure gold!
