Kolkata Knight Riders assistant coach Abhishek Nayar played an important role in the title fight of IPL 2024. KKR won the title by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final held in Chennai last month. After this victory, Varun Chakraborty and Venkatesh Iyer praised the veteran cricketer. Nair played an important role in the return of Dinesh Karthik not only in the IPL but also in the T20 World Cup team in 2022.
Abhishek Nair recently appeared on YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia’s podcast show. During this interview, Nair was surprised by a question. In the podcast, Ranveer asked him if it is appropriate for athletes to have sex as there is a common belief that it affects their performance.
What did Abhishek Nair answer to Ranveer’s question?
Abhishek Nair answers this question very frankly. Speaking about this, he reiterated the statement of Brazil’s Ronaldo Nazario. The Brazilian legend, who inspired the team to the 2002 FIFA World Cup title, was asked after the victory whether a better performance was seen from him because of sex.
To this the footballer replied: “I have had sex many times before matches. It helps to concentrate while playing. But all coaches advise you not to have sex before the match. I realized that in some matches I was able to play better because I had sex before.”
Speaking on ‘The Ranveer Show’, Nair was initially surprised by the anchor’s question. Let’s see what actually happened between the two
Anchor: One last topic, sex in cricket? Is sex a factor in the lives of athletes?
Nair: Are you asking this in a positive or negative way? Because you have asked this question very openly. Yes, it is a factor in the lives of athletes too. Which person can survive without it? But is it good or bad? Is that your question? Or is your question how much sex?’
Anchor- I want to answer that, but I also want to see what you actually answer.
Abhishek Nair- “Having sex is a simple thing. But it is also different for everyone. There is a constant conflict going on in every cricketer’s mind. Some like it while others avoid it. Some believe that not having sex increases energy, which allows them to focus more on the game. Some people have sex and feel that nothing has changed for them, everything is normal. So it is a very personal matter. There are no rules for this. The truth is that different things work at different stages of life. No one feels bad but sometimes there is so much pressure that one wants to enjoy openly.”
Abhishek Nair commented openly on many issues like this question. He shared some cricket memories and also narrated stories of Rohit Sharma’s training and his practice.
