Understand your own self, and open the maximum potential you have as a cricket player, former Captain and head coach Rahul Dravid’s mantra for everyone who wants to take the sport professionally. Dravid, who worked with Rajasthan Royals in IPL in the ongoing season after guiding the T20 World Cup victory, spoke with ‘Jiohotstar’ in the ‘Halla Bol’ section. “Just to be good in the cricket and just practicing crickets will provide you with a definite distance, but really good players, the wonderful players I have the privilege of sharing with the dressing room, one of the common things I have seen, said one of the common things I have seen.”
“I think if you know who he’s as a person and grow up as a person, you’ll give yourself the best chance to maximize your potential.”
The gift of sports ability can take only one person so far, Dravid feels.
“You have been given a talent to be the best cricket player you can be, you also need to grow as a person, and to maximize your potential, you need to understand yourself as a person both on the field and outside.” He said.
He clearly stated that he did not believe in comparisons.
“This individual can not judge yourself with other people, you cannot compare yourself with other people. Your job is to get the best of yourself and the gifts given to you, and this will only come with growth as a cricket player on the field, but grow as a person.” Dravid said.
