Driving Naari Programme launched in Chandigarh
Would you be interested in playing in county cricket, “No, I am not interested,” was a curt reply from the lanky pacer, who was not allowed to give an elaborate answer by the organisers of the event in a hurriedly promotional function relating to bikes.
One of the heroes of India’s Lord’s Test win, Ishant was asked which among Lord’s (2014) and Perth (2008) was a more satisfying effort according to him, there was another terse reply with any elaboration.
“There can’t be any comparisons between the two performances.”
While the 25-year-old, who has 178 wickets from 58 Test matches was keen on answering a few questions, a member of the organising team was constantly stopping him from answering cricket-related queries.
How disappointed was he after being thrashed by England in the Test series, the seamer replied,”No team wants to lose a contest. We played hard enough but they played better
cricket than us.”
When someone sneaked in a question about how “cool” Dhoni is on the field, Ishant said, “You guys have seen him (Dhoni). He remains pretty relaxed.”
