'Unity Cup' Brought me closer to Swami | Sunil Joshi, Former Indian Cricketer on Sri Sathya Sai

"Whenever I think of Swami, I get goosebumps," said the thrilled Sunil Joshi after offering salutations to Bhagawan at the Sai Sannidhi on Sep 16, 2024. He was blessed to be part of the Sri Sathya Sai Unity Cup that was held in the Divine Physical Presence of Bhagawan in 1997.

In this short conversation, this former Indian cricketer and former selector of India cricket team, revisits those hallowed moments of that international match that was played in Prasanthi Nilayam more than four decades ago and shares his prized memories of how he became a part of this historic match. That was also the beginning of his spiritual journey to Sai - a journey that he cherishes every bit and longs to inspire others to experience this Divine happiness.

As Indian cricketers competed in Anantapur for the Duleep Trophy, Sunil Joshi seized the opportunity to drive about 80 kilometers to Prasanthi Nilayam, eager to seek the blessings of his beloved Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
