No One Expected Me To Play IPL So Soon: RCB's Suyash Sharma Reflects On His Challenging Journey
The 21-year-old revealed how he earned his first IPL contract with defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders before switching to RCB.
"I had never played in a proper tournament before the IPL. I had only played Under-25. I spent six or seven years in trials but was never picked. Every time I visited my parents, they would ask when I’d get a chance in the IPL. But my mum and dad never doubted me. They could see how hard I was working. After the Under-25s, I went for IPL trials. At that time, my googly was very sharp. I think I took eight wickets out of ten in one match, it was a KKR practice match, and even the wicket-keeper was getting beat. That’s when I was picked. My father was in hospital then. He cried when he heard. No one expected me to play IPL so soon," Suyash said on the latest edition of RCB Bold Diaries.
