This picture was taken during the final of a corporate cricket tournament in Pune. There are fewer things more glamorous than a fast bowler bouncing out a batsman. The sharp bounce from the good length forces the batsman to arch back in a C-shape in order to save his head. Sometimes such scenes are more satisfying for a pace bowler than getting a batsman out – more of an ego boost to the bowler. As it often happens, the next ball was a perfect yorker and the batsman missed it completely. Vibhash describes himself as a cricket fan caught up in corporate life.
