जैसे ही हम भारत छोड़ रहे हैं, मैं इस खूबसूरत देश और इसके लोगों को मेरे परिवार को यह दिखाने के लिए धन्यवाद देना चाहता हूं कि यह कितना आश्चर्यजनक है। आप सचमुच बहुत खास हैं। हम एक परिवार के रूप में वापस आएंगे! 🙏🏽🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/f0SDB4s0iq

You can’t not have input from the coach in terms of selection,he looks the players in the eye everyday and for his role to be taken seriously needs to communicate clearly on roles with the players and give feedback!

Memorable day yesterday! Debut for @heatbbl and a win made it even better. The ‘Cap presentation’ and singing the team song after will surely stay with me forever .
