RCB have given me a chance – Romario Shepherd

Romario Shepherd is one of the most jovial personalities in the RCB dugout and when he is around, he can make everyone laugh their hearts out. His mutual respect for his teammates is incredible. On the latest episode of RCB Bold Diaries, Shepherd left no stone unturned in praising his teammates.

Big Rom said, “Everyone knows that TD (Tim David) is my guy, so he's the best. I didn't know that he was actually funny or a fun guy off the cricket field because you see him on the cricket field and he's like... So to see him be funny off the cricket field, so Jitesh also, Skip Rajat, Kunal, he's like a West Indian kind of guy. Him and TD is similar.”

He further added, “These guys, you know, they all make me happy, especially, you know, you've been away from home for so long. You know, an unbelievable bunch of guys if you check them off the cricket field and on the cricket field. So I think RCB is best to have all these senior guys mixed with younger guys in one dressing room.”

He also revealed his livelier side, stating, “I like to be in the party, but I don't think I'm the life of the party because I'm not a big dancer, but I try to do what I can. So as you've seen the video, yeah, I can hold my own. I can do a bit, but nothing too flashy, just enough.”

Expressing his gratitude for RCB, Rom added, “RCB, you know, they've done, they've given me a chance. So when they give me the opportunity to actually go out there and represent one of the biggest franchises in IPL, so it was like, they changed the way that people would follow you.”

He concluded by saying, “Everyone is chanting RCB because even when I'm playing for West Indies in other parts of the world, you know, they're still chanting RCB, RCB. Even on the field now, when you walk out to represent RCB, you know that it's more than just like a franchise, it's more like family kind of thing where like people follow this franchise so much, even outside of IPL.”
