Playing cricket for India is the biggest privilege of my life. My #Rise has been on an unusual path. Along the way, the love and affection, I have received has overwhelmed me. The support and encouragement from wonderful people, helps me find ways to #ExploreTheImpossible ..1/2 pic.twitter.com/FvuPKljjtu Notably, the chairman of the Mahindra Group had promised to gift the SUV to 6 India cricketers after their heroics in the Australia Test series which India won 2-1 despite the full-time presence of star cricketers like Virat Kohli, Mohammed Shami, Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah. In a lovely gesture, the 30-year-old sent his signed Gabba Test jersey as a return gift.
