Dravid reacts to "#DoItForDravid campaign
With no ICC trophy to his name both as a player and captain, social media has started a campaign, asking the team to win the trophy for him as a farewell with "#DoItForDravid."
However, on being asked for a reaction on it, the Indian legend has asked fans all around social media to stop the thing as it is against what he stands for:
"It's totally against who I am as a person and my values. I don't believe in doing it for somebody."
"I love the quote when someone asks 'Why do you want to climb the mount Everest? and the answer is because it's there.' Same is the thing with the World Cup, it is just there, not for someone. We just want to win it," Dravid added.
