It's a straight drive! When Param Capital's Mukul Agarwal wielded the willow

Guess who has been padding up in London for some first-class cricket? Everyone's eyes may have been on the recently-concluded Rio Olympics, but Mukul Agarwal, chairman, Param Capital Research, took a team of cricketers for a three-match tournament with Royal Ascot for some willow action.

While this time the ace investor was playing at the famous London cricketing club, he's also backed teams at the Goregaon Sports Club in the past.

So it came as no surprise that he knocked off a half-century in the first match against Ascot and even snatched up two wickets to take his team home. Favourites to win, the second match, however, slipped out of his team's hands, making the third match a tournament clincher. Given Agarwal's passion for the game, he'd definitely like to see the trophy in his arms.
