  'What do you know about the boy?' Dad asked. 'He plays cricket for India,' my uncle replied, as if this mere fact was a clincher.  
  The announcement did not make any noticeable impression on my father and Geeta Didi, because, like me, they did not follow cricket. 
  'I've seen him play,' announced my mother, astounding us all. 'You have?' I asked, dumbfounded. 
  In 2013, Puja Pabari, who had never followed cricket and didn't understand the game, married Cheteshwar Pujara and witnessed firsthand what happens in a cricketer's daily life. Over the next few years, however, she learnt the nuances of the game, understood sports nutrition to take care of the diet requirements of a vegetarian husband and took charge of the Pujara household as the sole woman in the house. 
  In The Diary of a Cricketer's Wife, Puja brings a unique perspective on what it takes to be a cricketer's wife, the pressures of managing expectations on both personal and professional fronts and the struggles, vulnerabilities and triumphs of being so closely associated with the game in a cricket-crazy nation. Alongside, she offers a rare glimpse into Cheteshwar Pujara's life, from playing street cricket at a railway colony in Rajkot to eventually becoming one of the greatest test cricketers in India, and the sacrifices his parents made to ensure he fulfilled his dream despite their difficult circumstances. 
  Heartfelt and candid, The Diary of a Cricketer's Wife is a testament to the resilience and passion that define Cheteshwar as well as the couple's enduring love and commitment to each other-a rollercoaster of emotions.

  Martial Arts Mastery -...

  Martial arts have a rich history that spans thousands of years, evolving from ancient practices of self-defense and combat into a diverse array of styles and philosophies. The origins of martial arts can be traced to civilizations around the world, with evidence of early techniques and methods seen in ancient Egypt, Greece, China, and India. These practices were often closely tied to the need for survival, whether in warfare or personal defense, and they evolved as cultures exchanged knowledge through trade, conquest, and exploration. 
  In ancient China, martial arts were deeply influenced by philosophical systems such as Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. Practices like Tai Chi and Kung Fu emerged not only as methods of combat but also as ways to harmonize the body, mind, and spirit. Similarly, in Japan, the samurai culture gave rise to martial arts such as Jujutsu, Kendo, and Karate, which emphasized discipline, honor, and respect for one’s opponent. Indian traditions, particularly those rooted in yoga and ancient combat systems like Kalaripayattu, played a significant role in shaping the spiritual and physical elements of martial arts in the region. 
  Philosophy is central to martial arts, transcending physical techniques to cultivate a way of life. Concepts such as humility, perseverance, and self-control are core to most styles, emphasizing that true mastery lies in the refinement of character rather than in brute strength. Martial arts often teach practitioners to seek balance, both internally and externally, encouraging them to remain calm under pressure and approach conflict with wisdom rather than aggression.

  The Power of Two

  One of the most compelling figures ever to lace on a pair of skates, Carl Brewer was a gifted skater and stickhandler, renowned for his ability to control the pace of a game and goad opponents into costly errors. His talents made him an NHL All-Star and one of the cornerstones of a Toronto Maple Leafs dynasty. But he was also a loner playing a team game, a free spirit in an era when players were expected not to make waves. Teammates and management alike wrote him off as an eccentric, an enigma. At what should have been the peak of his career, he abandoned the game, embarking on a lifelong search for meaning in his life. Along the way, he met Susan Foster, and together they would discover that purpose. The Power of Two tells the story of how Carl and Susan successfully battled the hockey establishment over the issue of player pensions. Together they uncovered fraud, corruption, and betrayal of trust, ultimately helping bring down the powerful Alan Eagleson. The Power of Two also provides intimate insights into Brewer, who was aptly remembered as a "magnificent, misunderstood fanatic", and his enduring bond with the life partner and ally whose tireless support he depended on.
