And Dhoni finishes off in style !

MS Dhoni has retired ! The day we were all afraid of has come! I am deeply pained by this fact but at the same time I can’t help but smile at what has been an incredible journey of 16 years ! Growing up I didn’t have a clue about cricket and could only associate it with two names Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni. I was a fan of Dhoni from the start but not because I watched him play or knew anything about him but because everyone around me loved him. It was only when I started watching and understanding cricket that I realised the reason.  There is a very interesting book I would like to suggest every cricket fan to read. It is called “Numbers Do n’t lie”. It is written by Aakash Chopra and is an incredible read in all sorts of ways.

Last year our school informed us about an event organised by Metamorphosis called Global Schoolpreneurship Summit 2019 . It asked us to come up with a creative business idea and pitch it to the judges. I have no experience in economics or commerce or any sort of business(other than the fact that my dad is a marketing professor haha) but this caught my eye and I couldn't help but think about it. That night I told my parents about it and they also felt like this was a nice opportunity. But for taking part, I needed to come up with an idea, make a presentation and present it. There was quite a bit of commitment in it which is something I unfortunately am not good at. We anyway started brainstorming for ideas Finally we came up with an idea and so I enrolled in this competition with the business
