Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 28: Courage is often the bridge between challenge and opportunity. Recently, Kamesh Gareri, former Senior National Coach of the Meghalaya Table Tennis Team, found himself facing a pressing concern with Anil Kumble’s company, where processes threatened to drag an important matter into delay.
Instead of waiting, Gareri chose courage. He reached out directly to the cricket legend himself — an act of honesty and initiative many hesitate to take.
Kumble, known for his own iconic display of courage when he bowled with a broken jaw against the West Indies, responded with characteristic clarity and action. What could have taken months was resolved in just a few days.
Grateful for the swift support, Gareri personally thanked Anil Kumble, calling the experience a reminder that in sport and in life, courage creates shortcuts and authenticity earns respect.
Two arenas, two leaders — but one timeless lesson: courage defines champions.
