Rising New Zealand all-rounder Rachin Ravindra credits his father's love for cricket for his instinctive attraction to the game. He had a childhood surrounded by cricket, with his dad playing club cricket and the sport always present at home. Ravindra idolized spin-bowling all-rounder Daniel Vettori and had the opportunity to meet his family in India during the World Cup. He praised captain Kane Williamson's leadership and the cricketing intelligence of Mitchell Santner. Ravindra remains humble and focused on the present, prioritizing the Bangladesh Test series over the possibility of an IPL contract.
