Kapil Dev Supports Kambli Amid Challenges
Cricket legend Kapil Dev has shown willingness to assist Vinod Kambli, who has been facing personal and health struggles. Recently, fans raised concerns after a video surfaced showing Kambli at a memorial event for his coach, Ramakant Achrekar. Struggling to stand and speak, Kambli’s frail condition stood in stark contrast to the lively Sachin Tendulkar, also present at the event.
A Helping Hand with Conditions
Kapil Dev emphasized that while the cricketing fraternity wants to help, Kambli must take the first step by enrolling in rehab. “We should all try to support him. But more than us, he has to support himself,” Kapil said. He stressed that self-care is critical before external help can make a difference. The 1983 World Cup team has rallied behind Kambli, ready to cover any necessary expenses post-rehabilitation.
