At the point when competitors used to remain mum about their preparation, the brandishing framework and the experts in that framework or association, Sanjay Sharma chose to be forthright and vocal about it. Having addressed India in the field of badminton for north of 16 years as a player and a mentor, Sharma's collection of memoirs "Match Point — A Shuttler's Story" mirrors major areas of strength for him. Be it composing for the media while playing for the nation or being suspended and given a daily existence boycott by the then Badminton Relationship of India for expounding on them, Sharma has persevered through everything. Inside the quick 219-page long book lies the coarseness and assurance of a shuttler who faced various conflicts on and off the badminton court. The initial not many pages of the book begins with his ongoing battle against Caveroma in the spinal rope and his family support prior to beholding back to his profession in Indian badminton from 1975 to 1990 (as a player) and 1998-2003 (as a mentor). Among the few successes in his profession, Sharma feels that the success against Malaysia in the 1979 Asian Zone Thomas Cup finals in their home ground was the most essential. "Playing the primary pairs against the then World No. 2, Pradeep Gandhe and I worked out of our skin to cut a tremendous win, which assisted India with overcoming Malaysia interestingly," he states. While lamenting not bringing home the public singles championships in view of the presence of stalwarts like Prakash Padukone and Syed Modi, his appreciation towards the two players emerges all through the book. Valuing Padukone, Sharma monikers him the 'supervisor' while giving the perusers an inside and out point of view of the Indian badminton scene during the 1970s and 80s.
