    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) wicket-keeper batter Jitesh Sharma was pursuing a life in the forces and perhaps he would have succeeded had it not been for his attempts to secure an extra four percent in 10th standard.

    In Maharashtra, extra marks are awarded to students excelling in sports and Jitesh, along with his friends, decided to go for the trials where his life changed completely.

    “I was in 10th standard that year. I wanted to go for NDA. I was interested in the Air Force and Defence. In Maharashtra, if you represent in 10th or 12th standard, you get 25 marks, 4 percent extra.
