He lets his performance speak for him. His behaviour on the cricket field has been exemplary,&quot; Chopra said at the News24 cricket conclave here Monday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;In the age of cricket where we see many on-field altercations, here is a cricketer who is hardly involved in any verbal spat. He is a prime example of a proper disciplined cricketer.&quot;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Supporting Chopra&#39;s opinion, former South African batsman Jonty Rhodes said the Indian captain, who retired from the longest version of the game in December last year, also doesn&#39;t speak much with his bowlers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&quot;He hardly speaks to his bowlers on the field. The main thing is he has plans for each and every bowler. His bat speaks for him and his plan as a captain also speaks for him. So, he doesn&#39;t need to chatter behind the wickets,&quot; said Rhodes, who is known for his fielding skills during his heydays.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">(IANS)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails\">&nbsp;<\/div>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  window._taboola = window._taboola || [];\r\n  _taboola.push({\r\n    mode: 'thumbnails-a',\r\n    container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnails',\r\n    placement: 'Below Article Thumbnails',\r\n    target_type: 'mix'\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>",
