Stanford Cricket Club - 1997 Season

• Ganesh Seetharaman played his last games for us, moving on to greener pastures
• South African import Adnaan Meyer sent down a few vicious bouncers, played a couple of whirlwind knocks, and then left us and his girlfriend never to be heard from again
• Zain Khan scored two half-centuries in the same season, something we have not seen happen since.
• Atul Khanzode scored 130 runs in about 400 deliveries - this was the year prior to the arrival of his buddy Nikhil, an event which was to transform his batting beyond all recognition.
• A stylish left-hander scored a few runs in his debut season. Dominic Griffiths was a talented batsman. However, he was later upstaged by the arrival of a flashy left-hander of Hollywood fame - Venu Javarappa.
• We first encountered Sarabjit "Sanju" Chadda, who served as the inspiration for Atul and Ravisha's unique bowling styles (see the East Bay game)
• We managed to score more runs than Davis, but still lose the game thanks to some arithmetic errors that were not spotted till days later.
