The ace cricketer also expressed his desire to meet Sushil, who scripted history by becoming the most successful Indian Olympian.

He is the only Indian to win medals at successive Olympic Games, having won a bronze medal at the Beijing Games.

"I look forward to meeting you when you are back. Let's organise something so we can meet up," the ace batsman told him.

With a haul of six medals, including four bronze and two silver, this is India's most successful Games.
