Dravid Fan..Who??

Disha Shetty 18 Aug 2010

For all those who thought FFC3 auditions were over on Monday, it was far from over for me.

After being interviewed by Dravid in Bangalore, I had to face a volley of queries by RCB'ian Abhimanyu Mithun (albeit virtually via chat). He had been following the FFC3 proceeds on our website and congratulated all of them.

And having known how star struck I was after being chosen as the Chief Blogger by my idol, 'Dravid Sir' (as Mithun addresses him) he tried to gauge my 'Dravid Fanatic quotient'.

Hurling a bouncer at me he asked "What's that thing about Dravid Sir that has changed in 14 years??"

So here's one to all Dravid Fans..Do drop in your answers as comments. I'll be revealing the Answer by tonight. Till then keep guessing.

Hint: Mithun has an eye for small details.

P.S. Unfortunately I couldn't get this right :P

Well I think Rahul Dravid(RD) used some other label before he started using Brittania. With this thought, I spent nearly an hour at various sites to collect the info about his bat labels, at last I think I have succedded :)
Here's the link: http://www.rediff.com/sports/may/30a.htm

look at the last thumbnail shown in the near end of the article.It shows RD holding a bat with Wills Label!

@ Raghunath, Thanks a lot for giving me the address of RD's upcoming residence, it will come in handy :)

@Disha: Thanks, So got it right in the second try. It's the only thing that has changed...Dravid Sir's Physical, Mental and of course, Technical Attributes haven't changed at all. He is one of the greatest cricketers to have played the game, and an epitome of grace, humility and commitment to his team's cause. Hat's Off
@Mithun Sir: Thanks a Lot ! Just a humble follower following a very Humble Crickter.

@amoghavarsha-padiwal

The story (or 'news') I have heard about Dravid's house is that his 'Gated Community Bungalow' is under construction near Logica CMG's office on Airport Road (Divyashree Technopolis).

If you wanna send a Greeting Card/Post Card/"Gift", I'm pretty sure it will reach him! Don't forget PIN Code 560037

Not today ... I guess it is many months away!

@Raghunath- its over. Ashish answered it.

@Ashish- Mithun Congratulates you for answering his 'tough' question :-P

His Kannada seems to have improved, thanks to playing with Kumble, Srinath, Prasad and Joshi!

Raghunath on 18 Aug 2010, 09:57 PM

Ok guys So we have the winner here. Its Ashish Sharma "Bat logo has changed from ‘Britannia’ to ‘Reebok’"

Mithun himself wanted to declare it (from Dambulla) if no one does, he even had a great time reading the comments :-P

disha-shetty on 18 Aug 2010, 09:54 PM

Just one thing he is making him familiar with Modern Cricket his approach... and yes more patience i can see in him

sreehari on 18 Aug 2010, 09:35 PM

I m certain its nothing technical about his career for India. Its something related to Mithun or mayb RCB. I m predicting its those Qs whr we want the person to think deeply n thn laugh at th failure bcoz the ans is trivial!
whatever, admiration for a person makes a fan, not all the knowlede abt him :P
