    The Many Shades of Nasser Hussain

    Nasser Hussain has been a very prominent cricket personality for the last twenty years or more. He was born in Madras and moved to England at a young age with his parents. Since becoming an Essex man he has been in the public eye for almost thirty eight years.He went on to captain England for 45 test matches and remains one of the most feisty characters the game has seen. Sachin Tendulkar has hailed Huissin as the greatest captain he had played against. For a young fan Hussain is the face of the SKy cricket commentary and podcasts. We dedicate this episode to the man who has made a seamless transition from the pitch to the booth - where assured aggression has been gradually replaced by self deprecating humor. And his autobiography is easily one of the better cricket books - we highly recommend it. https://www.amazon.com/Playing-Fire-Autobiography-Nasser-Hussain/dp/0141003669     Joining host Saqib Ali is podcast resident guest Vijay Arumugam and podcast debutant Amit Sharma from Mumbai. Sharma has been a loyal supporter of the podcast and is a self acclaimed Hussain fan. We tried to offer a balanced conversation with praise and criticism through the lens of watching Hussain and also reading his autobiography. Its a long one so get comfortable and dive in!
