As we walk towards the foyer where his silver-coloured Merc is revving
up, Thawani says the reason why he has banked so heavily on cricket for
a livelihood is simple: India is the new cricket superpower as it
provides between 60 and 80 per cent of world cricket revenues. And his
greatest satisfaction is that Nimbus has finally shown that it can beat
the world. Not bad going for somebody who, by his own admission, was a
"middle class failed sportsman" till a few years ago.
