It was just when we’d both been bought by the Deccan Chargers, in the very first @iplt20 auction. From there a friendship was born. An old bull leaving International cricket, partnering with a young bull on the rise to becoming one of Indias greats. @rohitsharma45 it’s been a pleasure to play against and with you, to observe you as a broadcaster and fan, and even better to know you as a mate."
