It's one thing to have an achievement like the 1983 World Cup on your resume. But it's a whole other deal to start your career with a match-winning performance against an intimidating and, at the time, world-beating West Indian side at home in your first year in international cricket. 

Our guest in this episode has seen it all - the struggles, the rise, the highs, and the obstacles Indian men's cricket has gone through, as a player, coach and selector. In this episode, we catch up with World Cup winner Madan Lal.
