Description
My Way.... chronicles the life and times of M.L. Jaisimha. The late legend influenced generations of cricketers from Sunil Gavaskar to VVS Laxman and was a hero to many, such as Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella.
Apart from being South zone captain, Indian team Manager, National selector, TV commentator and newspaper columnist, Jaisimha was virtually brand ambassador of the Charminar Challenge series, the corporate world’s pioneering effort in cricket sponsorship following India’s triumph in the 1983 Prudential/World Cup.
The biography is built on anecdotes recounted by greats such as Gavaskar, Laxman, Mansur Ali Khan of Pataudi, Ajit Wadekar, B.S. Chandrasekhar, Salim Durrani, Budhi Kunderan, Abbas Ali Baig and others.
As Times of India’s Guest Editor, Nadella approved publication of a feature on Jaisimha. Content for Avijit Ghosh’s article was sourced from My Way.
Gavaskar not only wrote the foreword for his all-time hero’s biography, but flew to Hyderabad to launch it in the presence of VVS Laxman and former BCCI President N. Shivlal Yadav besides all leading media organisations, both print and electronic.
A. Joseph Antony, a former Senior Assistant Editor with The Hindu, is a post-graduate in History from the University of Hyderabad.
