Never Stop Dreaming: Harmanpreet’s Heartfelt Message To Young India After World Cup Triumph
World Cup: Harmanpreet Kaur’s lifelong dream finally came true on Sunday night as she lifted the Women’s World Cup trophy, guiding India to a historic 52-run victory over South Africa in Navi Mumbai. After fulfilling her childhood ambition, the Indian captain had a simple yet powerful message for the next generation — “Never stop dreaming. You never know where your destiny will take you.”
In a video released by the BCCI, Harmanpreet reflected on how her cricket journey started in her childhood, playing with her father’s bat — one that was much too big for her at the time. “Ever since, as a kid, I started getting a sense of what likes and dislikes are, I’ve always seen a bat in my hand. I still remember we used to play with a bat from my dad’s kit bag. The bat was very big,” she said.
“One day, my dad cut an old bat of his to make it small for me. We used to play with it. Whenever we used to watch a match on TV, or watch India play, or watch the World Cup, I used to think, I need an opportunity like this. At that time, I didn’t even know about women’s cricket.”
