It argues that mediatisation and mediation of cricket have played more significant a part in the circulation of cricket than historians have accorded to it. It studies the role of literature, news reports and radio broadcasts, which have transmitted cricket for a long period, as agents of producing a history of the sporting public. The framework of culture in this thesis is formulated on media texts which, far from being confined to objective treatment of cricket, evoked canons, provided the sport with a sense of tradition, and determined the protocols of its appropriation.

  • Indian Express, 30Th
    30 th December, 2014 Ranji Trophy: Shardul Thakur adds to his tally, now Bengal suffer Ranji Trophy: Shardul Thakur's 5/37 was his third five-wicket haul in as many games. (Source: Express Photo by Partha Paul) As Shardul Thakur came roaring in at Eden Gardens on Monday, the pitch, which had looked so benign during Mumbai’s innings, suddenly appeared unplayable. The batters, save Manoj Tiwary, came and went. Six wickets fell for 130 runs when bad light ended the day’s proceedings. Thakur had five of them. Thanks to his efforts, Mumbai are in the driver’s seat as Bengal need another 135 runs to avoid follow on. Opener Arindam Das hung his bat loosely to a Thakur outswinger and was gobbled up at second slip by Suryakumar Yadav. Rohan Banerjee was deceived by a slower one and was caught at cover by Shreyas Iyer. Sreevats Goswami offered a thin edge to Akhil Herwadkar at first slip, Tiwary got a beauty and was caught behind by Aditya Tare, and Laxmi Ratan Shukla was cleaned up by a delivery that held its line. Thakur had another five-for — his third on the trot. Wilkin Mota took in-form Sudip Chatterjee’s wicket, catching him plumb in front with a sharp in-cutter, but Mumbai’s bowling on Day Two of this Group A Ranji Trophy fixture was all about Thakur. At stumps his figures read 16-3-37-5. His overall tally, 23 and counting. In the absence of Dhawal Kulkarni and Zaheer Khan, responsibility has been thrust upon Thakur.
