In our latest episode we talk to Amol Muzumdar, a legend for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy and a bona fide domestic great. Muzumdar's illustrious career spanned two decades and he finished with 9,205 runs in the Ranji Trophy - which stands as the second-highest aggregate of all time.
Muzumdar scored 30 first-class hundreds and was the backbone of the Mumbai Ranji Trophy side through much of the 1990s and 2000s. He won seven Ranji Trophy championships with Mumbai and captained them to the title in 2006-07, when they rallied after a poor start and upstaged the rest of the competition.
Talking points:
The importance of playing league cricket in England
How helmets transformed batting techniques - and resulted in more players getting hit on the head
Today's players preferring power-hitting techniques to an artistic approach
The delicate balance with coaching - what to tell a player and when to pass on advice
How players can be so vulnerable to advice, and change the techniques that have been working for them
The case of Gautam Gambhir and Mayank Agarwal making tweaks to their batting technique
The concern over lack of quality spinners in Indian domestic cricket – and its knock-on effect on batting techniques against spin
How DRS has been a game-changer with regard to playing against spin
Pujara's unique approach to spinners and why it works
