The ‘Master Blaster’ had recalled his first memory with the former left-hander. “It’s been a year since You(Vi) retired... My first memory of you was during the Chennai camp & I couldn’t help but notice that you were very athletic & deceptively quick at Point. I needn’t talk about your 6 hitting ability, it was evident you could clear any ground in the world,” he wrote.
