TARUN NETHULA At the start of the 1992 Cricket world Cup I convinced my parents I had a “tummy ache” in order to watch India’s first game at the World Cup. As a 10 year old boy living in Hyderabad, Southern India, I fell in love with the game instantly. Growing up I never played BYC or beach cricket as we didn’t have a backyard in our house nor a beach in Hyderabad. So it was the rooftop that was transformed into the MCG with loud, noisy rooftop cricket and my cousin emulating our heroes from the World cup. We bickered and quarrelled over every run and wicket as only kids can. Looking back, I suppose this was where I formed my very competitive spirit. Finally I convinced my dad to enrol me at a cricket club. So glad he did!!! Having tried my hand at keeping and fast bowling, it was time for some SPIN!!! The more cricket you play the better you get as a cricketer and trust me, you will realise your own special talents as you experiment. We moved to NZ in 1995 and the rest, as they say, is History. Every time I play, I strive to be the best I can be and I use it as an opportunity to contribute to the success of the team I play for, be it BYC, club cricket or the Aces. Family support played a huge part in my enjoyment and success, therefore I urge all parents to support their child in their pursuit of their passion…. Here’s hoping that passion is Cricket!!!!!
