I was 18 when i became a cricketer and played for the Mumbai U_19 Team and tournment. I soon aged up with experiance and joined Mumbai's Ranji Team and started Coaching them. I never wanted Player's in my team under me to find me as a coach but to look at me as a Player, as a freind or to say as a guide. I never wanted them to be formal with me. I coached them for 2 Season's and it was time to bid farewell. My term had come to an end and i had got offer from NewSouthWale's Blues.My 7 Year's Cricket Coaching Experiance had given me opportunity to try foreign hands. I was nervous, i was nervous about will Player's in the squad get acustomed with my way of coaching? Will they be able to follow my way of giving guidence? But.. Soon..

I Reached Australian Soil, I had signed a One year contract with the Blues. I met my team the day i reached. We had some practice mathces coming before the start of KFC Big Bash. I needed some one like me, who would like keeping the dressing room atmosphere calm and jolly. I had found a player it was MR Warner... David Warner.. Soon time progressed and we won matches after matches and also won the Championship.. Player's where happy with the way i was coaching, they where happy to see dressing room atmosphere always calm.. I was happy to have some good bunch of player's.. But down my mind i wanted to Coach an international side... May it be a big test playing nation or a small upcoming test playing nation... Player's in Blue's Dressing room wanted my contract extended.. I too had no choice and was enjoying thier company... NSW Blues Cricketing Chairman had called for a meeting next day.. and i knew it was for renewing the contract for the blues..

Next morning i got up.. wore some good formal clothes..(Usually i am cozzy and wear sports wear only) and was about to leave for the meeting and suddenly the phone rang... TRING!!! TRING!!! TRING!!! TRINGG!!!..I saw the number and could not remember and did not know who was it... I picked up and said "Hello!! Who is this?" The operator said " Hello we are from Cricket Ireland and would like to arrange meeting with you regarding Coaching the National side for a period of 2 Years...", I was amazed and was damn happy from inside... and said " Yes i would love to arrange a meeting too but how come you know me and know my coaching experiance" The operator said " We have recieved your Resume.." In my mind i thought ' I send them resume???:eek::eek: '... I told the operator.. " I have not sent you any resume" Operator said " Yes Cricket Australia Looking at your NSW Blues Coaching impressed by you have sent us this resume" Whuppie!!! I thought..

I said " When do you want to arrange the meeting ??" She said " Within 45 Minutes in the NSW Blue's Confrence Room " I said " But that is already booked as they have arranged a meeting for me.." She said " Yes you are right but that meeting is held for this purpose only " I said " I will be there in 45..."

I reached and agreed to Coach Ireland Cricket Team For A Period Of 2 Years.

Now Let Me Introduce You


Hello My Name Is Patrick Grey(Imaginary) and i am the coach of Ireland Cricket Team. Read My Story.. It's not a story of making Ireland reach Number One or something.. But it's my story of Life in Cricket..

Cheers

Well i was more then happy but it was time to bid farewell to yet another very good bunch of player's for my ambition.. They where sad to leave me.. but while going i said " Keep the dressing room atmosphere same after i leave and with that i packed my bag's and went to airport where i had my flight first to India and then to Ireland to the stadium in Belfast where i was supposed to meet my team.

My flight took off.. and tear's rolled my eye:crying:crying leaving such good australian player's. But anyways life had to proceed and so did mine.

As the plane took off from the Sydney airport.. there came some cricket lover's who saw me guiding the NSW side.. and wanted autograph from me.. I gave one of them.. and in return the girl asked.. " Sir Grey why did you leave NSW side?? Is it they did not perform well or is it due to more money you needed.. Sorry to be frank..":noway

I said " Dear.. I too feel bad for leaving such great bunch of player's and have not done this for money nor is it that they did not perform or something like that.. but it was like i had some ambitions.. i wanted to coach a national side.. and It's Cricket Australia who provided oppurtunity to me.. I was about to sign the renewal contract at NSW but they had a surprise waiting for me.. as they knew my ambition and do not worry i will be back in short span of time with NSW if Cricket Australia Wants:p...."

Mate, there is no wrong in starting a story where as you need to continue with that. And I wish you a good luck and why don't you pick some pc members as staff of the Ireland side.? And there are many spelling flaws which you need to rectify.:)

Chapter 2

My Welcome In Irish Soil

I Closed my eyes... and was about to sleep.. and then i dreamnt of the KFC Big Bash Finals..

Flashback


The day has come... We are all set for a thrilling final's between the NewSouthWale Blues and the Western Australian Warriors....

We chose to bat first... had a good 58 run stand for the opening.. and then suddenly we had a sought of collapse.. we are 77/3... Just gave some cheering to my boys.. I sent water to Henriques who is leading the side... and told him to stay at crease no matter what happens... Take it easy and play naturally without any fear.. Steven Smith had joined him but beautiful out going delivery took his wicket and now we where really struggling at 97/4.. From 58/0.. but it's T20.. and score on the board mattered for me... I Sent Usman to bat and told him the same thing to stay at the crease no matter what happens.. it was just 12 Over's and we had plenty of over's left.. Captain did it for me... He scored unbeated 57 runs.. and also it was an Unbeaten 79 Runs partnership and they both played well to score almost 10 runs in last 8 over's.. It's time for our bowler's to perform... We did not start well... The opener's put on 61 for the 1st wicket and then other was out quickely.. But Adam Voges the captain and Luke Ronchi.. really troubled Steven Smith and Mitchell Starc... and they both gave 80 in thier 8.. When we just though things where over for us.. Aaron Bird came up with 2 Quick wicket's and the captain Henriques also took the main wicket in the second last over.. Wicket of Voges... In 2 over's 20 Runs where needed... Henriques bowled a brilliant over taking wicket of Voges and giving only 4 Runs... 16 required of last over 4 Boundries... But it was too tough... Only 3 runs.. came and Blues won yet another KFC Title.. by defeating WA Warriors by 13 runs in the final... I got up from my sleep and soon...
