What made Laxman Very Very Special? ft. Sharda Ugra | Cricket
About this episode
The Kolkata Test of 2001 against Australia proved to be a major turning point in Indian cricket. And one man who will always be synonymous with that special Test is VVS Laxman who established himself as the batter who would produce the tough knocks for the team whenever needed, something he did admirably well over the next decade playing more than 100 Tests. Noted journalist Sharda Ugra looks back at the life and career of India’s crisis man in this special episode of A Century of Stories: Cricket podcast presented by IDFC FIRST Bank.
