There was time when it was not just Cricket during the English summer - but even the cricket-writing that people would look forward to. It is sad that cricket-writing has lost its sheen in the bang-wham world of Twenty-20. Followers of the game would be reminded of the 1971 tour of England by India. B S Chandrashekar's magical bowling got India it's first series win in England. A term used by the cricket writers then to describe what Chandrashekhar's spin-bowling did to the English batsmen was 'flummoxed'!
That's our word of the week - flummox. It means to bewilder or to confuse.
