Come back soon and take care of your family and your 'mental health'.

Another fan was reminded of former Indian cricketer and coach Rahul Dravid. “Reminds me of the retirement of Dravid who retired while he was still the best in overseas tests. Aura: 99999+ ...Respect to you sir for prioritizing what seems right to you.”
