Have I grown taller?

Two things happened last week which makes me think whether I have increased in height!

1. I played an intra-unit tennis ball cricket match last Wednesday (it was the Semi Finals and unfortunately, our team lost). I was fielding at short cover and one of the batsmen actually spooned the ball in the direction of point. While the ball didn't travel much of a distance, it went higher and gave me a chance to catch it. I ran as fast as I could and at one point felt that the ball was winning the race. I just stretched out my left hand in despair hoping to make it look like I was making a good attempt and lo! The ball landed in my hand.

2. Last Friday, I was alighting from an MTC bus and inadvertently bumped my head against the entrance. This has never happened to me ever before.

Taking these two things into account, I think I have probably grown a little in the Y-axis as well (in addition to the growth along the X and Z axis).
