Shikhar and I complement each other very well: Murali Vijay

   
  Fatullah (Bangladesh) : India Test opener Murali Vijay believes good rapport off the field with teammate and opening partner Shikhar Dhawan helps them perform better on the field.

“It’s said that for openers, it’s important to be good friends off the field in order to succeed as a pair on it. And it is absolutely true. Shikhar and I share a very good rapport off the field and that helps us in the middle,” Vijay was quoted as saying by bcci.tv.

“Although our games are different, we know each other’s games very well. As far as our personalities go, some people think he is the relaxed one and I am the serious one. But while batting, it’s the other way round. I am more relaxed and he is usually pumped up. We complement each other well in that way,” he said.

In 32 Test matches, Murali Vijay has six centuries — 139, 167, 153, 146, 144 and 150. The last one came in the first innings of the Test match against Bangladesh here which ended in a draw on Sunday.  read   more  http://www.vishwagujarat.com/sports/shikhar-and-i-complement-each-other-very-well-murali-vijay/
