From The Brink Of Quitting Cricket To IPL Success: Punjab Kings' All-rounder Shashank Singh Shares His Journey
Indian Premier League: Shashank Singh has been part of the Indian Premier League (IPL) since 2017 – first with Delhi Daredevils then Rajasthan Royals, Sunrisers Hyderabad and now with Punjab Kings. But he didn’t get to feature in many matches. However, this season, when he got the opportunity, the 32-year-old all-rounder made sure he became an overnight sensation.
Shockingly, a couple of years back, he was thinking of quitting the game when things were not going right, and he was facing ups and downs in his career. But at that time his family stood behind him and supported him in his struggles and pushed him to continue playing.
Speaking exclusively to IANS, Shashank shared his journey and the role of his father, who wanted to see him in the Indian jersey.
