This might come as a shock to many given Dravid’s calm demeanour and Gambhir’s fiery persona but according to Ashwin, the ex-Kolkata Knight Riders’ mentor is very laid back behind the scenes. “I think he (Gambhir) is very relaxed. I want to call him ‘relaxed rancho’. There’s no pressure at all. In the morning, there will be a team huddle. He is very relaxed about that as well. He will be like, ‘Are you coming, please come’; it’s like that,” Ashwin said. “With Rahul bhai, as soon as we come, he demanded in order.

He will capture everybody’s heart, and I think he will be loved …
