My first memory of the sport was watching India in the 1992 World Cup. There was something about the jersey at that time that caught my attention. Till date, I think that was the best one India has had. Of course, it wasn't until the WC 1996 that I seriously got involved in cricket and watched about 90% of the matches live - no matter which teams were playing. I remember my father advising me to not watch neutral matches so as to not "waste time". Those were the golden days.
