How does one deal with failures on the sporting arena? Hear it from Rahul Dravid, who did not score 10,000-plus runs in Test and one-day cricket without encountering and conquering some tough times.

At a Rajasthan Royals promotional event on Saturday, Dravid said: "Being sportspersons, we are going to face failures, but it is very important that you look within yourself. Failure is a stepping stone to success. It is important to learn from those mistakes and try to improve."
