"Maybe He Didn't Have Talent In...": Rahul Dravid's Old Assessment Of Vinod Kambli Resurfaces

After a video of Vinod Kambli's recent public appearance came to the fore, an old clip of Rahul Dravid sharing his views on the definition of 'talent', while mentioning Vinod Kambli's name, has resurfaced on social media. Kambli, a childhood friend of the legendary Sachin Tendulkar, was one of the most-talked about cricketers when he arrived at the scene, but he failed to maintain the stature. Despite playing 104 ODIs and 17 Tests for India after making his debut in 1991, Kambli's international career could not last even a decade.

Prithvi Shaw is certainly going through the toughest time in his cricket career. The right-handed batter, once touted to be the "next Sachin Tendulkar", could not find any takers at the IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia held last month. The 2018 U-19 World Cup-winning captain was seen as the next big thing in Indian cricket, but his downfall in the past few years has taken him out of consideration for the Indian cricket team. Shaw was even dropped from Mumbai's Ranji Trophy squad before going unsold at the IPL auction at a base price of Rs 75 lakh. He is currently playing for Mumbai in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy but has failed to impress with his game so far.

One video that went viral from the unveiling of legendary cricket coach Ramakant Achrekar's memorial in Mumbai, had two of his famous students - Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli - meeting after a long time.

Kambli started playing for the national team a few years after Tendulkar and had a great start to his career too. But soon, his form took a downward spiral. Kambli did play 17 Tests and 104 ODIs but could not leave a big mark.
