Apart from him I also like Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir who are from other teams."

"Whenever we have free time during shooting or during breaks the production house people along with a few cast members  of the show play cricket on the sets. I too have tried my hand at it and I like playing this game. I always do batting  as I don't like bowling. I have got a compliment too from people with whom I play cricket that I play pretty well (smiles). I used to also play with my friends during childhood too. Cricket is always fun whether it is watching or playing." she concluded.
