Books Reading, Playing cricket.
I have a strong interest in reading self-help and autobiographical books, as they provide valuable insights and inspiration for personal growth and development. I enjoy exploring the life stories of others, learning from their experiences, and applying these lessons to improve my own life. In addition to reading, I also have a passion for playing tape ball cricket at the domestic level, which allows me to stay active, connect with others, and enjoy friendly competition in a relaxed and social environment.
