Surya, who joined Mumbai Indians for the first time in 2012 for a season and then rejoined them in 2018 recently revealed his experience of being in the Mumbai Indians dressing room.

“When I went to the MI dressing room for the first time, there was no room to sit, there were so many players. I was standing with my kit bag. Sachin has a fixed spot to sit, near the Ganesh idol. He asked, ‘What happened?’. I said, ‘There’s no space to sit.
“He replied saying, ‘Pull up a chair and sit somewhere. I told him, ‘There’s no space anywhere.’ He asked me to sit beside him and to date, that spot is where I always sit. Whether it is the domestic game or an IPL game…that spot is fixed. That’s where it all started and after all, if God tells you to sit there, you have so sit there,” he told Kapoor in the interview.
