Cricket may be considered a game of technique, fitness and strategy, but luck also plays a part in it. Many famous cricketers around the world believe that certain things or habits make them lucky on the field. Many famous players of India also have their own ‘lucky tricks’ on which they blindly trust.
Virat Kohli
Indian team’s star batsman and former captain Virat Kohli has admitted many times that he believes in lucky tricks. Kohli believes that his ‘Kada’ (iron bracelet) is auspicious for him. They never come on the field without a bracelet. This has become a part of his confidence.
Anil Kumble
India’s great spinner Anil Kumble made a historic record against Pakistan in 1999 at the Ferozshah Kotla ground in Delhi. He took all 10 wickets in one innings. An interesting thing in that match was that every time Kumble handed over his cap and sweater to Sachin Tendulkar, he got a wicket on the next ball. This was the reason why he did not break this custom during the match.
Sachin Tendulkar
‘Master Blaster’ Sachin Tendulkar was as reliable a player as he was a believer in luck. He used to wear his left pad first every time before batting. Not only this, he also got his ‘Lucky Bat’ repaired before the 2011 World Cup and India won the same World Cup. Not only this, he believed that it was auspicious for him to wear the left pad first, hence he always used to wear his left pad first.
R. Ashwin
Team India’s star spinner Ravichandran Ashwin had a unique trick. During the 2011 World Cup, he used to carry a special bag with him in every match, whether he was in the playing eleven or not. He believed that that bag was auspicious for the entire team, and the result was in front of everyone, India won the World Cup after 28 years.
M.S. Dhoni
For Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who took Team India to new heights, his ‘Lucky Number 7’ has special significance. Born on 7 July, Dhoni wore jersey number 7 throughout his career. Not only this, he has also named his sports brand ‘Seven’.
