He said that after the TV show incident and ban, I had become selfish and wanted to play only for myself. I failed because of focusing on myself and only on my score. After this I told myself that I need to get out of this and do what the team wants from me. Rahul said these things while talking to India Today.

He said that the cricketer's career is not very long and after 2019 I felt that I can play 11-12 years more right now. During this time I will spend all my strength and time in becoming a better player and team man. Due to my thinking, my pressure was also reduced and I started focusing on the team's interest.
