So, if you get there once, memories of watching a couple of games are enough to last forever. John Desa achieved his life’s goal in just one day, watching an incredible four games inside 11 hours.

“Having been here for such a long time and knowing the places, roads, distance between venues where games are played and geography of the stadiums, I thought why not give this a shot,” John told TOI on Thursday. “It may or may not have happened, but I wanted to try. The attempt is now successful. I’m incredibly happy.”
