India's most educated cricketers!!

“Padoge likhoge banoge Nawab, Kheloge kudoge banoge kharab”  was an old saying which our grandparents used to say and which surely not hold true in today’s world. Studies are important but playing at least one sport in a proper way is also important. Sports field is a great teacher in itself. It tells you how to lead your life in a dignified, competitive manner.  

In India if we talk about sports then the most loves sports of the nation is Cricket. It is a religion in our country and cricketers have achieved Demi god status. Though these cricketers give it all in cricket field but some of them were equally good in the field of studies as well and today we are going to discuss about them.
