Venkat Ananth and Akshay Sawai of the Open magazine go behind the scenes to find what cricketers do, speak, and most importantly, eat, during the lunch break.
Asked to name the big eaters in the current dressing room, Rohit Sharma says, “In the Ranji Trophy team, it would be Abhishek Nayar, and in the Indian team, Irfan Pathan.” Sharma himself is known to be a food enthusiast.
Nayar also figures in Agarkar’s list of dining table heavy-hitters. Vengsarkar names Shastri and Sachin Tendulkar. Bevan says, “The big fast bowlers were the best eaters. Glenn McGrath, Jason Gillespie... they didn’t mind a feed.”
