Ishant Sharma - From Being A Snub At School To India's Leading Test Bowler

By IANS News February 23, 2021 • 15:43 PM View: 3571

From a boy who once sat at a west Delhi intersection with tears in his eyes after failing to get admitted to a recognized school 17 years ago to becoming the second India pace bowler to play 100 Tests, it has been quite a journey for Ishant Sharma.

Back then, a lanky, ungainly Ishant had just one cricket jersey which had faded to pale yellow. His primary concern then was to gain admission in a recognized school from the unrecognized neighborhood one he was studying in.
