About the author

Soham Sarkhel’s initial belief of cracking it as a professional cricketer backfired miserably when he realised that his angular batting stance led to an increase of 463% when it came to his chances of getting bowled. The very same day he realised that quantifying such an anomaly was exceptional on his part and instead decided to dab his hands with numbers and cricket. With a Bachelors’ degree in Media & Communication from Symbiosis, he is now a writer cum statistician for Impact Index for the last 2 years and like any other obnoxious teenager in India feels he should have been the next No.3 for India after Rahul Dravid. Needless to say, he still doesn’t know where his off-stump is.
