"I personally know Kedar Jadhav...Also, my favourite cricketer is MS Dhoni. He is a Dabangg player," Salman said.
Salman was accompanied by his co-star Kiccha Sudeep, who is playing the villain in the third installment of the Dabangg series. "My favourite player is the one who plays well on that day. But what we see as fans is the respect each player has towards each other," Sudeep said.
"We can visibly see the players stand and cheer for the achievements of their teammates - with such a positive attitude, we can freely have our favourites. My all time favourite has to be Anil Kumble sir, and I also like Rohit Sharma," Sudeep added.
Salman and Sudeep will be seen in Dabangg 3, which is scheduled to release on December 20.
