Quotes

Robin Uthappa

Former Indian cricketer

“"He could have a bigger impact on white-ball than Tendulkar. But how he’s managed is going to be important. We’ve seen in Indian cricket exciting players come through the ranks. We saw Vinod Kambli and Prithvi Shaw and started asking what they would become when they were 17‑18 years old. And then suddenly they fall off the wagon."”
