The Indian cricket team is currently in Dubai for the ICC Champions Trophy. With two consecutive victories, the team has already secured a place in the semi-finals and is now preparing for its next match against New Zealand on Sunday. As part of their rigorous practice sessions, a heartwarming moment took place when star cricketer Shreyas Iyer surprised net bowler Jaskiran Singh with a special gift.
During a practice match, Jaskiran Singh was fielding when Shreyas Iyer unexpectedly gifted him a pair of shoes. The gesture left Jaskiran thrilled.
"This is a special moment in my life. I received a pair of spikes from Shreyas Iyer. He came over to me at long-off and asked, ‘Paji, kya haal-chaal? Sab badhiya?’ (Brother, how are you? All good?). Then he asked my shoe size. When I said 10, he handed me a pair and said he had brought them for me," Jaskiran shared.
Jaskiran Singh, a chartered accountant by profession, is also a part-time cricketer based in the UAE. He has been living there for the past 18 years. For the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy, he was selected as a net bowler. While he has had the opportunity to field for the Indian players during practice, he is still waiting for a chance to bowl to them.
