TIL Desk Sports/ Jammu and Kashmir lost against Jharkhand on the field, but off it the cricketers from the northern valley emerged gainers when former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni decided to spend some time with them answering their cricketing queries.
A couple of years back, the J&K cricketers had a similar chance when Sachin Tendulkar dropped in at the Wankhede Stadium dressing room after they upset Mumbai in a Ranji Trophy game
It was a nightmare of a tournament for J&K as they lost all but one match finishing last in their group. After being beaten by Jharkhand, it was J&K skipper and India international Parveez Rasool who requested Dhoni to have a chat with the boys.
On rasool’s request, the double World Cup winning skipper headed straightaway to the J&K dressing room and patiently listened to their queries spending about 15 minutes. “Mahibhai has always been helpful on cricketing matters.
That’s his nature. It was a great opportunity to learn a thing or two from Mahibhai. He is a great guy. I played alongside him for India (Rasool’s skipper in his brief stint with India team were Suresh Raina and Virat Kohli),” Rasool said.
