  1971 was the year that changed Indian cricket forever. Accustomed to seeing a talented but erratic Indian team go from one defeat to another, a stunned cricketing world watched in astonishment as India first beat the West Indies in a Test series on their home turf, and then emerged victorious over England-in England. Suddenly, the Indian team had become a force to reckon with. 
  Boria Majumdar and Gautam Bhattacharya's book is a thrilling account of the 1971 twin tours, that brings to life the on-field excitement and the backroom drama. Against a canvas that features legends: Pataudi and Wadekar, who captained India to the two sensational series victories abroad; Sardesai, Durani, Viswanath, Engineer, Solkar, Abid Ali; the famed spin quartet of Bedi, Prasanna, Chandrasekhar and Venkataraghavan; and a young batsman named Sunil Gavaskar who was making his debut-it is the tale of a young country ready and eager to make an impression on the world stage.  
  Fifty years later, this is a wonderful book to relive those glory days with.

  Blending history, emotion, and theatrical performance, this audiobook captures the rhythm and music of Ali’s life: the punchlines, the poetry, and the pain of a man who stood tall against every obstacle. 
  Whether you know him as a boxer, a hero, or a symbol of freedom, The One invites you to hear Muhammad Ali like never before: raw, honest, and unforgettable. 
  This powerful production, which premiered in Off-Broadway, New York, in 2024, explores the iconic boxer's life, struggles, and triumphs, tracing his journey from Cassius Clay to becoming a global symbol of resilience, activism, and the champion of champions. 
  Serero, known for his bold storytelling and transformative performances, takes on the complex character of Ali, blending drama, history, and intimate reflection to capture the essence of the boxer’s persona. THE ONE delves into critical moments from Ali's career, his battles inside and outside the ring, and the personal sacrifices he made in his fight for justice, equality, and peace. “I wish to treat Ali as a Shakespearean character. He has everything that Shakespeare would love. He rose to fame, fell, then stood up again and fought against many, including himself,” said David Serero.
