Here's how judo helped Ajinkya Rahane’s in his cricket career

Ajinkya Rahane

Former India batter Ajinkya Rahane was always known to be a cool and calm customer on the field, never letting the opposition fluster him. He recently revealed that credit for this goes to his love for judo at a young age.

"Agility wise, fitness wise, and even how to control my emotions on the field, I learnt all this through judo. Unlike Virat Kohli, whose performance used to improve the angrier he got, for me, I played better if I kept a cool head. And I learnt to do that through judo," recently-retired Rahane revealed on the Sony Sports Network.
