Profile

India has always produced several great batting legends, and Rahul Dravid is a certainty in the top notches of that list. Despite making his debut almost six years after Tendulkar, he did not take time to catch up with the Master Blaster. By the time Dravid was in his early thirties, he was already in the big league alongside the likes of Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar and other batting greats. He is considered as one of the most technically sound batsmen of the modern era. A classical stroke player who effortlessly blends substance with style, it is a treat to watch him play those pulls and cover drives. Two traits that are associated most with Dravid are his sincerity and humility. As selfless as he is, he donned the keeping gloves for India when they struggled to find the right team combination. Saving Tests and winning them became second nature to Rahul. Unarguably India’s best overseas batsman, Dravid has been the backbone of the Indian batting for almost a decade now. He successfully led his nation to Test series victories in West Indies and England adding to his creditable performances in every country he has toured. ‘The Wall’ shockingly resigned from captaincy in 2007 after a successful England tour.

How to Cope With Hunger

steps

1. Drink a glass of water when you feel hungry. This will fill your stomach and lessen hunger pangs. It will also help you eat less if you drink the water just before eating.
2. Get away from the television. Don't watch cooking programs or commercials about food. You can get up during the commercials and do something else or record your favorite programs and then fast forward through the commercials.
3. Avoid carbohydrates as these will often stimulate your hunger, making you even more hungry. Instead, eat a small snack of protein and healthy fat, such as a few nuts, the white part of a boiled egg or an avocado.
4. Eat breakfast. A good breakfast will give you energy all day and you'll be less hungry between meals.
5. Have a larger lunch and smaller dinner. It's easier to be hungry at night when you're asleep and you'll be ready for breakfast in the morning.
