Akash Deep dedicates match-winning show to sister
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: "Every time I had the ball in my hand, her thoughts would cross my mind," said an emotionally overwhelmed Akash Deep as he dedicated his stellar performance in India's jinx-breaking Test win over England to his sister, who is battling cancer for the past two months.
Having taken 10 wickets in the series-levelling 336-run victory at the Edgbaston here on Sunday, the 28-year-old Bengal speedster well and truly arrived on the big stage with a performance of a lifetime on a track that was, for most part, a bowler's graveyard.
"I have not spoken about this with anyone but two months back, my sister was diagnosed with cancer. She will be very happy with my performance and this will bring some smiles back," he controlled his emotions while talking to Cheteshwar Pujara on 'Jio Hotstar'.
