After Hours

The part that doesn't fit on a CV. Cricket taught me pressure, the gym taught me patience, and the rest keeps me honest.

Cricket

Cricket was where I first learned to compete seriously, handle pressure and remain committed even when results were uncertain. It became an early training ground for discipline, teamwork and situational decision-making.

02 · Your turn

One over, six balls

Time the shot. It's the same instinct the numbers above are made of.

The Challenge

One Over.

Six balls. Pick your side.

Bowl at Ribhav and try to get him out — or grab the bat and see how many you can score. Each over, Ribhav adapts. Can you keep up?

Fitness

I was overweight, then swung too far the other way and lost far more than I should have. Getting back to a healthy, strong body — and staying there — took longer than either extreme, and taught me more about patience than anything else.
