00:00I got a call from Anil Kumle, he will be captaining tomorrow.

00:02I was shifted from a normal room to a suite.

00:06We look like your captains in relationships.

00:08My name is Pandya.

00:18I guess I've been like this since childhood.

00:20That's why there's no specific reason.

00:22I've never followed anyone.

00:24I've always followed myself.

00:30I can be anything.

00:39I can be anybody I like.

00:40Otherwise I'd be still in the same situation.

00:44But not this.

00:46I'm not this.

00:46I'm not that.

00:47I'm not that.

01:00You won't get a smooth ride as long as you play cricket.

01:16You'll keep going up and down.

01:30You'll keep going up and down.

02:00I got a call from Anil Kumle, he will be captaining tomorrow.

02:03I was shifted from a normal room to a suite.

02:07Because captains get a suite.

02:09I said, yes, this is really happening.

02:11Someone like Hardik Pandya is a quality player.

02:31He can hit big hits.

02:34Kauva.

02:35Kauva.

02:36I hope he's not listening.

02:41No, it's okay.

02:42Even if he's listening, he's my brother.

02:44Yes, of course.

02:45But he doesn't like this name at all.

02:47Why?

02:48I don't know.

02:49Forget it.

02:50I'll get his message.

03:06I've been playing for 10 years.

03:11I played my whole career under him.

03:21He mentioned that he's the captain of the Indian team as well.

03:24Which helps me.

03:25Because this team, what it has achieved, it has achieved under his belt.

03:36I know he's going to have a shoulder, a hand on my shoulder always.
