RAHUL DRAVIDTendulkar must have known from his heart.
RAHUL DRAVIDI was in the hockey team in school, played football. One of the challenges for me was to make the team feel better. It helped me evolve, so batting at different positions was never a problem.
RAHUL DRAVIDHe is a great leader by example. Someone whom I have always admired for his ability to remain balanced and have the sense of equanimity about his captaincy.
RAHUL DRAVIDNo dream is ever chased alone.
RAHUL DRAVIDIf someone thinks, ‘I’ll spend the off season working on my fitness and I’ll come back a better cricketer,’ I don’t think that’s enough. You need to spend a lot of time working on your skills and honing your skills.
RAHUL DRAVIDWhat drew me towards team sport were the camaraderie and friendship. The chance to celebrate victory and success with a group of other people is something I have enjoyed doing.
RAHUL DRAVIDI have failed at times, but I have never stopped trying.
RAHUL DRAVIDI was given a talent to play cricket. I don’t know why I was given it. But I was. I owe it to all those who wish it had been them to give of my best, every day.
RAHUL DRAVIDSometimes fitness is a good thing to have, but you have to recognise that fitness takes you only so far, and skills are the most important thing. Fitness just helps you execute those cricketing skills for longer and more consistently, maybe.
RAHUL DRAVIDI have the kind of personality that I always look ahead than look at what’s happened. It does help a lot, especially when you’ve done badly or you’ve failed. It’s instinctive of me that I look at what’s next, I look ahead a lot, and start preparing for that, in victory and in defeat.
RAHUL DRAVIDYou don’t win or lose the games because of 11 you select. You win or lose with what those 11 do on the field.
RAHUL DRAVIDI leave with sadness, but also with pride.
RAHUL DRAVIDSachin Tendulkar is already a ‘Bharat Ratna’ for Indian people because of his phenomenal success and the manner in which he has served Indian cricket for years.
RAHUL DRAVIDA career in sport is almost impossible to manage without the support, and guidance, and reassurance of family and friends. During tough times, and there always are, this is whom we go to.
RAHUL DRAVIDYou get an image in the first couple of years of your career, and then whether you like it or not, you are stuck with it for the rest of your life.
RAHUL DRAVIDUnwanted honking not only irritates others, but may also end up causing accidents. Drivers lose cool and it may result in road rage.
