Ad

Dravid, popularly known as “Jammy” showed the world his greatness when he wrote a letter to English batsman Kevin Petersen explaining to him how he should play spin at a time when he was struggling against spinners in Bangladesh. He elaborated on ways to tackle spin.

Pietersen is a South-African born English Cricketer who has played 104 Tests and scored 8181 runs at an average of 47.18. His was an instrumental figure in the famous Ashes win for England in 2005, where they defeated Australia after 18 years.

The spat between Pietersen and former England captain Andrew Strauss curtailed his career and is still searching for an opportunity to play for the Three Lions again in Tests, while he had already retired from ODIs in 2013.
