He says, “Career in cricket has a short span, maybe till your mid-30s. I would love to go back to studies and pursue higher education. Even though I wasn’t a very enthusiastic student, still I enjoyed the life on campus as I had enough time to play along with my studies.”
Kevin is a firm believer in education and he says that it opens a lot of doors for people. He says, “Studies give you a degree a responsibility and brings disciple. In my degree years I learned about scheduling and flexibility, which is a very important in managing things in life.”
