| Past cricket teams? | I started playing cricket when we moved to Pakistan at age 12. We didn't have clubs, grounds or any real cricket equipment so we improvised, like millions of other kids. A cheap bat, a tennis ball, electric tape, chalk (to 'draw' the wickets) and a wall (no need for a keeper) were generally all we had. To this day I am afraid to play with a real ball, as evident from the look on my face when a catch is coming at me. | |

| What do you like most about MCC? | I thought I had given up cricket forever when I came to the U.S. in 1991 but then the Internet came to the rescue and I found out about MCC and other teams in the Portland area. I am not sure why I picked MCC at the time but I am thankful every time I play with these blokes. The best part of being an MCC member is that we have fun playing cricket and afterwards, at the pubs. | |
