5 cricketers who prefer books over social media
From dugout readers to tour-time bibliophiles, these five cricketers have chosen pages over screens.
4. Rahul Dravid
Rahul Dravid, the former India captain and head coach, is known for packing multiple books on every away tour. He has treated reading as his primary method of de-stressing from the mental demands of cricket across a long career both as a player and later as a coach.
A biography of Dravid, titled The Nice Guy Who Finished First by Devendra Prabhudesai, covers his career from 1996 to 2005 and reflects the thoughtful, measured personality that his reading habit represents. His reputation for patience and discipline on the field appears to extend naturally into his choice of how to spend time off it.
