'Dravid Rarely Seen Inside…': Kumble’s Witty Take On Pavilion End Honour At Chinnaswamy

By IANS News April 06, 2026 • 14:36 PM View: 176

The Karnataka State Cricket Association: Legendary India spinner Anil Kumble shared a hilarious take on being honoured with the pavilion end at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium named after him, saying the pavilion end has not been named after Rahul Dravid because he either spent most of his time outside it or because he was ‘rarely seen inside’ once he walked out with the bat.

The Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) unveiled the "Anil Kumble End" and the "Rahul Dravid End" ahead of the IPL 2026 clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings on Sunday, recognising the contributions of two of Karnataka and India’s finest cricketers.
