Former cricketer Anil Kumble is often regarded as one of the best cricketers in the Indian cricket team. He recently discussed his approach on overcoming obstacles and hurdles in cricket and in life. The former Team India coach wrote extensively on LinkedIn on the skill of handling adversity and remaining composed in the midst of challenges.
"As someone who has faced many tough challenges and setbacks in life, I know how easy it can be to give up and lose hope. But I also know that when we refuse to quit and keep pushing forward, even in the face of adversity, we can achieve great things and inspire others to do the same. One of the moments that taught me the power of never giving up was when I bowled with a broken jaw against West Indies in 2002. Despite the excruciating pain and the risk of further injury, I kept going because I believed in myself and my team," wrote Kumble in a post. He further explained more about resilience, perseverance, teamwork, and inspiration.
