The laidback town of Raub was where I spent my childhood, but life took a turn in 1969 when my father was transferred to Kuantan. My upper secondary school days began there, marking a new chapter filled with memorable experiences, including my introduction to cricket on a regular basis.
The Kuantan Ceylonese Association, with Gandhi K. Singham at the helm, played a major role in promoting cricket. In 1969, they came up with the novel idea of hosting the inaugural six-a-side cricket tournament.
