Skipper Ajinkya Rahane was asked when the pressure was building on the team and on himself after the string of defeats, if he had considered stepping down as captain or taking himself off the playing XIs in select matches.

In a recent interaction, Alia also spoke about how Raha’s birth has made her more averse to social media and how she now guards her personal life far more strictly. Speaking to Esquire India, Alia admitted that “truly a lot has changed” after Raha’s birth and said, “Every now and then, I feel I have a glimpse of who I used to be.

It happens over the course of nine months. You feel your body, and your mindset, transforming. But when you see the child that you’ve made come to life, the scale …

Asked during an interview with Italian state TV RAI if he ever thought about quitting, he replied in affirmative. “I remember before the Australian Open this year, it wasn’t a very happy time. I didn’t really feel comfortable in the locker room, where we were eating. Players were looking at me differently.

Because I knew that I didn’t do anything wrong. So why do I have to pay this price?. But then we discussed it with my lawyer and about what could have happened in the worst-case scenario and so we decided to accept it,” he added.
