THE BEGINNING
Hi, I am Aditya Shergill. This is my photo when I was 17 years old.

Do you think I am poor? Think again.

I had a very very comfortable childhood and had all the luxuries I could have ever wished for. I lived in a town named Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh, India). My father was one of the richest people in the town. My family comprised of my parents, and my best friend - my elder brother. My mother was Irish. I had an interest in cricket from my childhood. But his interest grew much faster than my age did. My father agreed to send me to a cricket training institution. I had extensive coaching in cricket. I was one of the best players around. I participated in all the cricket competitions he could - local, inter-school, and city. And believe me, I was a sensation.

But my father never wanted me to become a cricketer. He only liked it as his interest, but he was aware of the fact that for me, it wasn't just a mere interest, it was my life. Now before you have any misconceptions, my father wasn't a selfish or evil person. But, he knew that cricket wasn't as clean as it looks. There were a whole lot of things involved, like politics, match-fixing to name a few. And he knew that I just can't stand anything wrong. Yes, he was right. For me, the correct thing was correct and wrong was wrong. I couldn't have tolerated anything unjust, then be it to me or someone else.
One day, when I returned after playing cricket, my father's usual dialogue came "Nice that you are active in sports, but do concentrate on your studies as well.You have to get admission in a nice college and later do M.B.A and manage my business." This wasn't anything new, but this time I could not handle it. I shot back " You know that I have no interest in managing your business. Then why do you keep irritating me by saying so again and again? I want to become a cricketer and that is it." My father tried to explain the problem but I didn't listen. Finally, he said "OK son, you've got me. I should give you a fair chance. I give you 2 years. If you are able to get in the International team by then, you can continue your career as a cricketer. But,if not, then M.B.A."
Then he went out. I tried to figure out how to go about doing this near-impossible job.

Legendary net service.





Hmmm...... the update looks good. Certainly this can become a great story.
 
Hey Archit. I liked the way you started it. But as a friend, I'm suggesting you few things, please keep those points in mind so that it will be very helpful.

- Narrating someones story is comparatively difficultish than to narrate our own story- try to change the first post, so that you will not get into complications later, but if you are confident with doing well, continue:).
- Never use centered for text- I did the same mistake in the beginning and later came to know that its very difficult to read.
- Always make sure that getting into intl cricket in just 2 years isn't an easy task, so make sure that you do it in a realistic way.

If you want any help regarding how to manage to get back to storyline, feel free to ask me:).
 
A good start man, keep on continuing with this. Will follow with lots of interest.
