Goan cartoonist Alexy has put India on the world map of cricket in a different way. His images caught the attention of authorities at Sir Don Bradman Museum down under. Alexy's work on the cricketer's portraits and cartoon book "Howzzat" have generated considerable interest with curators of the museum in New South Wales. The museum has a record amount of memorabilia on the legendary Australian cricketer. "I was excited because Bradman was my favourite cricketer. He's the greatest cricketer and he's one of the nicest if you read his life story," said Alexy. An avid cricket fan and follower of the game, Alexy chose Bradman as his subject not so much for who he was as a cricketer but for what he was as a person. Alexy has compiled some of the only sports cartoon books in India and hopes that one day his dream to hold an exhibition on his works on Bradman will become a reality. His choice for the Don of today's game - he believes it is Sachin Tendulkar. Goa has always enjoyed its share of space in the international limelight Through his works Alexy has ensured that the space grows. http://www.ndtv.com/sports/cricket/showstory.asp?id=27418 ~(^^)~ Avelino _____________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
