I was first acquainted with The Foundation and the work
they do when I ran with the entire team and the kids from
the Andamans at the Mumbai Marathon, 2008. It’s a great
organization and one that really cares. This jersey is very,
very special to me for obvious reasons, as is the test cap which
saw me through thick and thin for three seasons. Equation
as a concept is so powerful that I knew only something really
meaningful would do justice to it. Good luck!
It bears telling that the first person we asked to donate to Equation was Anil Kumble. A little
secret – we knew he would not say no because he has supported The Foundation in the past!
But, we can say with conviction, one of the greatest cricketers in history would not have
said no even if we were strangers. He isn’t built like that. The class of Anil Kumble reflected
on the Indian team when he was captain. It is that class that we doff our hats to, gratefully
acknowledging the contribution of one of Indian sport’s favourite sons. |
