The Game Can Become Very Funny – Gary Sobers 

When asked about the former Indian skipper breaking all the batting records in international cricket, Gary Sobers responded:

“Well, I wouldn’t say that because sometimes the game can become very funny. You can have some bowlers that are good too.”

And you have players who can do certain things with the ball at times and you don’t even think about. You have been playing often with these types of players, and if you are good enough, eventually you will rise,” he added.

The 34-year-old cricketer has represented the Indian team in 111 Tests, 275 ODIs, and 115 T20Is. The right-handed batter scored 8676 runs in Tests, 12898 runs in ODIs, and 4008 runs in T20Is. He has smashed a total of 76 centuries, second only to Sachin Tendulkar’s 100 centuries.
