Answer:
It was 1999 cricket World Cup
I was in crèche those days since both my parents were working. Since it was in the month of May, i was in the midst of summer vacations. I would desperately wait for May 14 counting days and hours and minutes so that I can finally watch some cricket.
For the next one month my mind was soaked in cricket and the related statistics. I would watch all the matches ball by ball. I dont know about others but watching cricket was an arithmetic game for me. I would calculate run rate, strike rate, average etc as the match would go on. Lets say score is 194/3 in 33 overs, I would have projected scores ready in my mind even before the commentators point them out, as if I am a part of the playing XI. Similarly, suppose, if a batsman is at 33(78), I would pre-empt, for how much time should he score at a strike rate of 200 to reach an overall strike rate of 80 or 90. Like that over the period of that month, my mathematical abilities kept skyrocketing.
Before the world cup I would hardly know tables upto 11 or 12. But now after the world cup, I would easily quote multiples of 47 or 49. Till the age of 10 I was never a bright kid in mathematics. But in mid June, the school reopened and mathematics started to look very easy. In the very first maths exam after the world cup, I remember scoring 48/50 and finished that year with 99/100. Then there was no turning back. My improvement and skills in mathematics started to get noticed. Mathematics which would give nightmares to my friends suddenly became my strength. What started as a passtime gave me some skills which I never planned to acquire intentionally.And this was the incident which changed my life.
