Cricket Astrologer predicts success of India in SA and revealed something unheard about Virat

Narendra Bunde, a resident of Nagpur and a ‘cricket astrologer’ by profession, had “foretold” some months ago that Mahendra Singh Dhoni, now 36, would be playing in the 2019 World Cup in England, at a time when many questioned his place in the limited overs game.

Having got his predictions right about Sachin Tendulkar’s comeback from tennis elbow injury, his Bharat Ratna honor, Sourav Ganguly’s comeback, India’s World Cup triumph in 2011, Bunde says that time has come for Virat Kohli’s team to taste success abroad.
Besides, he says, with supreme confidence, Kohli will soon strike an endorsement deal unheard of in the history of Indian sports.

“I predicted about Dhoni when people were talking all sorts of things against him. Look at the results in the past four months. I can foresee that he will be very much there in the 2019 World Cup,” Bunde says during a chat.

Regarding the current India captain, he says, “What Kohli will soon be signed up for is like what (Mark) Mascarenhas did with Sachin (Tendulkar). In fact, it’s going to be bigger than that in today’s age. Kohli’s Venus is very strong at the moment and that is why he will do well abroad.”

India is presently touring South Africa and will travel to England in the summer followed by a tour of Australia.

“I mean it will be not as bad as in the past when the opposition would whitewash us. According to his stars and planetary positions, there are chances of positive results in places like New Zealand and Australia.”

In the 1990s when Tendulkar was going great guns, Mascarenhas changed the game of celebrity management and turned the cricket icon into a multi-millionaire. Bunde, who turned to predicting the future of cricketers in 2006, was a jeweler before that.

Among those who have taken his advice are Ganguly, Murali Karthik, S Sreesanth, Zaheer Khan, Gautam Gambhir and Suresh Raina. Even actress Preity Zinta had sought his guidance when her IPL franchise Kings XI Punjab was going through a torrid time.

The Indian women’s team reached the final of the ICC World Cup last year, and Bunde says skipper Mithali Raj, too, took tips from him. And so was Vidarbha captain Faiz Fazal, under whose leadership, Vidarbha won their first-ever Ranji Trophy recently.

I spoke to Faiz Fazal and asked him to wear number 24 in the domestic one-day games. He did that. “As for Mithali, I asked her to wear number 33 jersey and it eventually proved lucky for her.”

Bunde says the only time he went wrong was during the 2007 World Cup in the West Indies, where India was knocked out in the first round. While Bunde is fairly known among the Indian cricketers, Paul the octopus swept to international attention when it predicted all of Germany’s World Cup matches in 2010.
