His physical appearance, initially less lean than some teammates, hinted at possible fitness concerns, including excess belly fat. However, recent visuals suggest the 36-year-old has diligently focused on fitness and diet, leading to a slimmer physique. Notably, he successfully cleared all fitness tests, confirmed in a recent report stating that Indian players passed the yo-yo test, securing their fitness for the upcoming tournaments.
