Peter Drury calls Harsha Bhogle “his hero”
Earlier, Peter Drury had called Harsha Bhogle “his hero” and hoped that they would be able to meet in London. The moment caught Harsha Bhogle's attention and he could not resist reposting it. “That is awfully nice of Peter but I do think he exaggerates too kindly. But I’ll take it!” he wrote.
Ahead of meeting Harsha Bhogle, Drury had expressed his excitement. "When I learned that I was associated with Harsha (Bhogle), I found that flattering. He is probably the only one who has never played first-class cricket. And I can promise you that I have never played football at the first-class level either. We are just lovers of sports who conjure up words to pay our bills!” the football commentator told Hindustan Times in a chat.
Even when Peter Drury chose to speak about his craft or appreciate a fellow compatriot, he was the epitome of eloquence. Both Harsha Bhogle and Peter Drury are two of the most integral and influential figures in the realm of sports, whom fans dearly love and adore.
