If someone is afraid of England, then it is rohit. If you want to play test cricket in England, you have to be ready. “

Sidhu signed himself, saying, “In IPL, you will play at flat games and then go to England. There you may get a shock. You have to be fully prepared. The test cricket is a mirror for any player.”
