About

*** NOTE TO THE EDITORS: I am perfectly fine as to how my articles are. Please refrain from editing. Thanks***

Anything from ‘power plays’ in ice-hockey to ‘bowling’ to strike out the pins excite me. From Latino football to south-east Asian Sepak Takraw gets my adrenaline kicking. I follow anything that involves racquet wafting, bat bunting to hitting and kicking ball. From the chicanes of motorsport to steeplechase in athletics to extreme and wild sport, I just love it all.

My cerebellum is also intoxicated by literature, history, algorithm, poetry and painting.
