Later he confessed he smoked about 40 cigarettes that evening. <BR/><BR/>And the match before this, the India vs Zimbabwe match in which Kapil Dev hit a majestic 175, India were in dire straits before Kapil came on the crease. At that time Srikanth and his wife had gone to the gallery of the stadium to get some "air". Chilly as it was, while Dev started playing, the couple on the gallery (and the rest of the team in the dressing room) were ordered not to move an inch from where they were, keeping the age old superstition. Kapil stayed on to play the rest of the overs while Srikanth could not move from where he was, all the time in the chill !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15506915.post-1131720956063000802005-11-11T14:55:00.000+00:002005-11-11T14:55:00.000+00:00@Mary: :)Thanks.@Ravi: Why wudnt India find the sa...@Mary: :)Thanks.<BR/><BR/>@Ravi: Why wudnt India find the same pleasure again?
