Question

Answer 1

My experience at IPL was different not because it was IPL and was going to be one of the most anticipated cricket experience (as it was my first Live Cricket Match), but because what followed it.

Being in Pune, I got a chance to watch the Live IPL match between Rajasthan Royals and Kings XI Punjab. Amid traffic congestion and humidity, the whole of Pune city swarmed towards the Sahara stadium, Pune. Stadium coruscated with flood lights and loud music blares amazed me. I was fascinated by the swiftness of spider Cam, the ease with which it recorded each and every emotion of the cricketers. Jeering and cheering with inflatable balloons, team flags and vuvuzelas reverberated the atmosphere. The cheer girls danced at regular intervals and entertained the crowd. To see cricketers live was in itself a different experience. During the last over of 2nd Innings, my 3 friends and I decided to move out, to avoid chaos in the end and get to our cab safely. To our astonishment, the cab driver couldn’t manage to come inside, because of one way traffic. Hence we decided to walk for few miles so that we can reach the nearby underpass, beside the main highway. We took the help of locals to explain our location, but those efforts went futile, as he was not able to understand. It was already 2 in the morning by then. Cars and vans passed by, even the last traffic guard left for his place, and we stood there clueless and helpless.

Among many cars passing by, a white Honda City also came across, and stopped in front of us. As the power window glass came down, a fair man peeped out and in his British accent enquired us for the directions to his place. We tried to guide him, but looked completely baffled because of our own situation. Out of courtesy, he asked us whether we were stuck and we nodded, he asked us to sit in his car, without thinking much we did that. My stomach was lurching, but I had no option to soothe myself with the thought that we did not have any other option. During the drive, we started talking and later learnt that he was an NRI from London. He even doubted twice that we were misguiding him and mentioned once “ mai apni ma da eklauta beta hun, meri gaddi lelo, mujhe chadd do” ( I am the only son of my mother, take my car and leave me) as he doubted that we were taking him to the wrong place, (the Punjabi tongue in which he spoke was because I mentioned once that I was a Punjabi, and was not speaking much in the car). But he was a nice guy, who dared to help us at that time of the night. He finally dropped us to our place and left for his.

I still wonder sometimes had he not come that night, what would have happened to us. Perhaps what happened, happened for good, and left an everlasting impact on us.

hope it helps........
