In his fresh short chat with the ‘Indian express’, he disclosed some insights of his phase of mental depression. He said, “It’s not a great feeling to wake up knowing that you won’t be able to score runs… I felt I was the loneliest guy in the world. I personally have experienced times when even in a room full of people who support and love me”.
