Cringe on reading Virat Kohli's pre-match statements: Rahul Dravid- Namaste English

At a time when a section of fans attribute the recent successes of Indian cricket to the new found aggression on the field under the firebrand captaincy of Virat Kohli, legendary cricketer Rahul Dravid believes the game is all about performance. Speaking at the Bangalore Literature Festival, Dravid, whose impregnable batting technique had earned him the title 'The wall', said that matches can be won even by players who don't sport tattoo on their sleeves.

इस समय जब प्रशंसकों का एक वर्ग विराट कोहली को तेजतर्रार कप्तानी के तहत मैदान पर नए आक्रामकता के लिए भारतीय क्रिकेट की हाल की सफलताओं का श्रेय देता है, तो प्रसिद्ध क्रिकेटर राहुल द्रविड़ का मानना है कि यह खेल प्रदर्शन के बारे में है। बैंगलोर साहित्य महोत्सव में बोलते हुए, द्रविड़, जिनकी अभेद्य बल्लेबाजी तकनीक ने उन्हें 'द वॉल' शीर्षक अर्जित किया था, ने कहा कि मैच उन खिलाड़ियों के द्वारा भी जीता जा सकता है जो अपनी आस्तीन पर टैटू नहीं दिखाते।
