Some guys relish knowing that the person they enjoy being with for the rest of their lives, in the environment and doing what you are doing now, man. Some guys wouldn't have done as much. But it looks like you really appreciate both sides of the coin."
On Richard's question, Virat's answer had won our hearts as he had showered his better-half, Anushka with praises and had revealed the secret behind their successful marriage.

Because she is a professional herself, she totally understands my space. She guides me in the right direction. The thing that I have learned from us being together is that if you are willing to do things which are right in your life, off the field, and doing the difficult things and standing by them, I think that creates your personality to go on the field and do the same thing."
