We are thrilled to be joined by two former India cricketers - Hemang Badani and Vijay Bharadwaj.
Hemang and Vijay enjoyed stupendous domestic careers and took part in some of the most memorable Tamil Nadu - Karnataka contests in the Ranji Trophy. There was no shortage of banter and competition when we paired them up for this podcast.
Talking points:
Their first memories of playing against their arch-rivals
The day when Karthik Jeshwant told Vijay Bharadwaj about the importance of scoring against Tamil Nadu
The Ranji final in 1996 - when Karnataka piled on a mammoth score (as Hemang watched from the stands)
A match in RSI grounds in 2001 when matters got heated and the players nearly came to blows
The never-ending batathon at Tirunelveli in 1998
The constant threat of D Vasu in these contests
Dodda Ganesh and David Johnson: never short of fire in the belly
The Cauvery politics and how it affected the players
How Karnataka players benefited from playing league cricket in Chennai
and much more...
