Professionally he is a cricketer, but he comes from a family of wrestlers. He is short-tempered. His bowling may not be of very high speed, but he knows how to swing the ball both sides. He also knows the technique of sending back the batsman back to pavilion on India’s dry wicket. Then in the last overs, he can try out his batting capabilities to help India claim a win. Apart from struggling on the cricket’s pitch, he also struggles on the pitch of speaking English, something with which he is not very comfortable with.
