  • Rathore to give motivational talk to Indian cricketers

    Cricketers Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and their team mates are to get a pep talk from Olympic silver medallist Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore before the start of the upcoming tour by Pakistan.

    Rathore, who won the silver in the double trap shooting at Athens, is expected to meet the Indian team at Mohali, where the first of the three Tests will be played, from March 4, said a Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) official.

    "We are inviting Rathore to give a talk on motivation before the Pakistani team's tour begins at the end of this month," the BCCI official told IANS.

    "We chose Rathore because his achievement is unmatched in the country and he is qualified to speak on the subject because he has the experience of handling intense pressure," said the BCCI official.

    Rathore has been constantly travelling and interacting with all kinds of people, from students to businessmen, happily sharing his experience with them.

    In recent years, the BCCI has been inviting personalities from different walks of life to give motivational lectures ahead of important tournaments/series.

    Among those who have so far been invited are seven-time world billiards champion Geet Sethi, Infosys chief N.R. Narayanamurthy, media personality Prannoy Roy, former All-England badminton champion Prakash Padukone and renowned yoga expert B.K.S. Iyengar.

    The BCCI has also invited well-known Australian sports psychologist Sandy Gordon on a few occasions.
