‘2 Years Before, I Was Going Through Anxiety’, Star Indian Cricketer Shocking Revelation

Indian wicket-keeper batter KL Rahul has come up with a shocking revelation. According to the star Indian cricketer, he was going through an anxiety phase at the age of 30, and at that point, he was thinking of putting a full stop on his cricket career. Rahul is now 32 and he is one of the important members of the national team.

However, he isn’t being picked for T20 matches, and things have gotten even more difficult for him since India’s win in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.

“The shelf life is small for the athlete, and you need to make the most of the opportunities you get. I was hit by anxiety when I was 30. I could see the end of my career. The situation was fine till I was 29,” he told Nikhil Kamath.

“I got anxious when I celebrated my 30th birthday. I thought I would play for another 10 years, and that gave me anxiety, and that was the first time I thought about the end of my career. I have played cricket all my life without imagining about such a situation,” he added.

KL Rahul acknowledged that as long as a player’s fitness is maintained, they can continue playing until the age of 40.

“Insecurity is not there, but there is a feeling that all this will end, and for me, it is going to end quickly. You can play till 40 if you are fit. MS Dhoni is still active despite being 43. You can do it in the IPL and other leagues but not in international cricket.”
