Rahul Dravid's interview with TCS CEO


Hi all. Here in this post I'm sharing the video of Rahul Dravid's interview with TCS CEO - N.Chandrasekaran in their 'TCS Annual Leadership Meet - Glitz 2012'. It was quite an interesting interview between two greats in their respective fields. Here both share their experiences in their own aspects. The way Dravid answers for a question on handling pressures and stress was quite inspiring. I hope it comes under the second part of the video. Above all I enjoyed the documentary on Dravid that was displayed at the beginning and at the end of the meet. Any one who missed this interview can enjoy it here.

Here's the video in three parts :

Flamboyant Dravid in IPL-6


Rahul Dravid - 'Mr.Dependable' of the Indian Cricket, who is often related to the term consistency, has defended it and proved it once again in this IPL 2013. He has lead his team flamboyantly from the front. While mentioning the term 'Consistency', I still remember an incident that made me happy being a Dravid fan when one of my professor in college who was himself an example for the students has mentioned Rahul Dravid as an example for explaining the term 'Consistency' in one of my subjects. I remained more attentive than normal throughout that session because of it ;) That was one of my unforgettable moments when all my friends were staring at me to see me smiling as a proud RD fan :)

Memories apart, back to the topic, Rahul Dravid - 'The Wall' who is often criticized for his low strike rate in shorter versions, has broken his jinx and critics in this IPL 2013. It's not an easy task for a cricketer who has retired a year ago to come back with this kind of performance. Each and every innings that he has played so far in this tournament eloquently reveals his dedication, hard work and his passion for the game. He has not just excelled as a batsman or a fielder but even as a skipper. He has been appreciated  for using his limited resources well. Now even the T20 enthusiasts agree to the fact that the techniques, class and a spirited attitude can sound louder than the strike rates for a batsman.
