Top 10 Shortest Cricketers in History

Re: Top 10 Shortest Cricketers in History

oh i didnt know. what was his height.

Original wall to ek hi hai. Rahul dravid. A true gentleman from what ive heard family friends say who live in same neighborhood as him in Bangalore. Completely down to earth. There was this reality show where they tried to make him bakra by getting a journalist to propose to him and getting someone to pose as her dad asking for marriage. He was completely cool, did not get flustered but gave her a talk on how she should focus on her studies and become something. He scolded the “pretend” dad for not telling his daughter she should focus on her studies.

I see you are getting more comfortable in the forum. How do you like it so far during ur short experience here.
