Rahul said: “It’s something that sometimes affects me and affects a lot of other boys that when we athletes really need support, people feel like they can comment or say can have the power to do or say what they want. Just see what it is.” The person is passing.”

The cricketer also mentioned that no athlete intentionally underperforms as everyone works hard and it is unfortunate that sometimes the results don’t go as planned.

He said: “None of us want to do poorly. That’s our life. That’s all we do. Like I said, I don’t know anything other than cricket.”

“That’s all I do. Why would anyone think I’m not serious about my sport or that I’m not working hard enough? And unfortunately sports don’t make a difference. Like I said you can work hard, Like I work hard but the result didn’t come my way.”

In the podcast, Rahul also talks about going from being a small-town boy in Mangalore to being a three-format player for the Indian cricket team, playing alongside MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, inside stories from the dressing room and advice . His fellow cricketers.
