শঙ্করী প্রসাদ বসুর ক্রিকেট সমগ্র

For some, cricket transforms into literature through their pen.
All cricket lovers know of the globally renowned cricket writer Neville Cardus. In Bengali, Shankariprasad Basu authored a series of books on cricket in a lively and engaging style that remain unforgettable to Bengalis. Once, winter sunshine and cricket were an extraordinary celebration. On the field, the battles of victory and defeat became stories of individuals' determination, self-sacrifice, fierce attitudes, casual indifference, or shocking breakdowns. In Shankariprasad’s writing, not only are famous characters from around the world present, but there are also accounts of Bengali players like Sute Banerjee, Montu Banerjee, and the dominance of the N. Chowdhurys. His remarkable cricket books contain numerous memorable and fascinating facts and stories. The collection titled Cricket Samagra has been published, including works like Eden-e Shiter Dupur, Ramoniya Cricket, Ball Pore Bat Nore, Cricket Sundar Cricket, Not Out, Saradiner Khela, and Lal Ball Larwood. Mere news becomes stale, but Shankariprasad Basu’s invaluable works endure as vibrant literature. Readers immersed in Cricket Samagra will undoubtedly experience the “boundaries of cricket’s beauty.”
