Rahul Dravid praised in Pieteren's Book
Dubs Dravid as a 'Genuine Guru'
It is a highly substantial news for the followers of The Wall as he is the first person to be praised genuinely in the otherwise "score settling" book.
Kevin Pietersen praised the way Dravid motivated him & improved his playing technique and labels him as "a Genuine Guru". Pietersen writes, “Rahul was a great and heroic Indian batsman in his day. He is also a genius at dealing with spin bowlers. Our conversations and emails were a private masterclass from a genuine guru.
"Rahul improved my cricket and helped me develop the way I think about the game. His generosity will stay with me always."
“My playing of spin has gone up a number of levels since I’ve spent time in the IPL, and in particular, since I’ve spoken to Rahul Dravid…In England, batsmen get taught to play with the spin against spin bowlers. In India, the best players of spin get taught to play against it.” he added.
Dravid's mail to Kevin Pietersen when asked for advice can be seen here:
Rahul Dravid is the most respected cricketer in world cricket, and comments from Pietersen in his book further solidified his image as an all-time Great.
