composurewith which he said, "Not Out!" even when the ball came straight and hit the stumps.
Bakdeeghi won the toss and allowed us to bat. Gopinath Ghosh was seen walking towards the stumps with slow, measured steps,exudingpersonality from every pore. Harish followed him, visibly shaken.
A stunned silence prevailed among the players of Bakdeeghi. None of them yelled, no one made invalid appeals. Even Malkhandhi, whose powerful lungs usually scared the birds away, made just one appeal in such soft and respectful tones that Mr Ghosh failed to hear him. The whole atmosphere was so abnormal that even the Atghara batsmen began to feel nervous.
However, the innings finally drew to a close at 112 runs.
Bakdeeghi's opening batsmen made their appearance, and promptly one of them was sent back to the pavilion. This batsman, none other than Patu Mukherjee, had tried to hit a ball that was outside the off-stump. Atghara's wicketkeeper caught the ball and made a strong appeal. Patu forgot to argue as Mr Ghosh's hand went up, and slowly returned to the pavilion.
The score read 0 for 1.
Mr Ghosh rejected two appeals for LBW in the next over. We didn't mind this as his impartiality had been established. The second wicket fell at 40 runs. It was not very difficult to get the next six wickets.
The score stood at 101 for 8. The batsmen at the crease were Atul Mukherjee (height: 6 feet; weight: 94.5 kgs) and Bishtu Mishir (height: 5 feet, 2 inches; weight: the same).
These two settled down quickly, and took Bakdeeghi up to 109. Their supporters began to get noisy as victory seemed within easy reach, with just four runs to win and two wickets in hand.
And then it happened.
Paramesh-da delivered a very slow ball. Mishirji had probably thought at first of making a sweep to the left. But the ball was so slow that he appeared to get quite confused at the last
