I feel that the present day cricketers are not much used to reading books. I can remember, those days Carl Obeysekera used to give me 'Cricketer Magazine' and Alf Gover Manual of coaching to read. I read the cricketer Magazine regularly. I learned a lot from reading. I feel that the present day cricketers should get used to the habit of reading.
Reading makes a complete man.
Roy, you told me that you captained St. Peter's two years 1971 and 1972. I first played for Colts Cricket Club for about 10 years. Then I joined Singhalese Sports Club SSC in 1980 and played for them about 8 years. I had an inauspicious start. In 1974, I was selected to play against West Indies.
