When Legends Rode the Rails: Untold Stories of Indian Crickets Humble Journeys
There was a time in Indian cricket when fame did not come with comfortwhen even the biggest names traveled like ordinary passengers, often unnoticed, and sometimes, deliberately so. This is one such fascinating story from that erawhen not just one player, but an entire team tried to hide its identity during a train journey. This story is of the days when BCCI (and simultaneously most of State Cricket Associations) were not so rich and for BCCI tournaments, teams often used to travel by train (there were no luxury trains) that too sometimes in un-reserved compartments. During 1979-80 seasons Mumbai team travelled to Jamshedpur to play Bihar in Ranji Trophy quarter final, by train. At one of the stations in the mid-night around 3 AM, the train stopped. A crowd came in the coach and started removing blankets, shouting kidhar hai, kidhar hai. They had the information that cricketers are travelling. Dilip Vengasarkar (on one of the top births), got annoyed with the sleep disturbed and removal of the blanket. This started arguments and now the crowd started demanding his apology. They declared that the train shall not move until Dilip apologises. Captain Sunil Gavaskar sensed the worsening situation and politely asked the crowd to come out of the train and talk. They agreed. Believe it that Sunil Gavaskar alone was sitting with the crowd on the platform and talking friendly with them. This worked, and the crowd was happy that they talked to Sunil Gavaskar. The train moved only after all this. Another related incident is also very interesting. This Mumbai team had a new youngster named Ravi Shastri. Most of the Mumbai regulars had even not seen him before that. Like all others, he was also asked to assemble at the platform but he was nowhere at the fixed time. Gavaskar didnt know how to contact him or to find him out. The train started without Ravi on board. players were occupying their respective berths, it was found that someone had occupied Ravi Shastris berth and was sleeping there. He was none other than Ravi Shastri himself. He had come early and without spending time in finding out his seniors, went to sleep on his berth. Seniors then woke him up and one by one introduced themselves. There are various stories of train travel in the un-reserved compartments or with few available berths but none beats the plight of Bishan Singh Bedi. He was Indias top spinner at that time and once after a match in Nagpur, he was to play a Duleep Trophy match at Chandigarh after a gap of one day. Also Read: Live Cricket Score On the travel day, he found that there was no train reservation for him to travel back to Delhi and then to proceed to Chandigarh. With no time in hand, he jumped in the moving train and spent the whole night in the baggage rack. From Old Delhi Railway Station he went to ISBT at Kashmere Gate and took a bus to Chandigarh. This incident also reflects the player's dedication to play domestic cricket matches.

IPL 2026: 'Cant Be Just An Impact Player', Says Kaif As He Urges MI To Fully Utilise Rohit Sharma
Indian Premier League: Former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif believes that Rohit Sharma should remain on the field for the entire duration of a T20 match instead of being used as an Impact Player by the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. Rohit, who tops the list of batters with most runs for MI in IPL history, was often used as an Impact Player in the last season, which, according to Kaif, was wrong as Hardik needed his help, especially during the second qualifier played against Punjab Kings, which the Mumbai Indians lost after a brilliant knock by Shreyas Iyer. In a tweet posted by Kaif on Thursday, he stated that MI should fully utilise the fully fit Rohit, and he cant be just an Impact Player. Kaif feels the MI will need the five-time IPL-winning captain in crunch situations, and his presence on the field will also help skipper Hardik Pandya. Mumbai Indians should fully utilise the fitter and learner Rohit Sharma. He cant be just an impact player; MI will need him in crunch situations. Also, his inputs to captain Hardik Pandya will be precious. Last year in Qualifier 2 against Kings XI, when Shreyas Iyer was hitting, Hardik needed Rohit next to him. Full involvement in the game will help Rohit the batter, too, Kaif wrote in a tweet on X.
