My Career

My cricket career began at an early age, where I represented Delhi in various age-group cricket tournaments. I played cricket at the state level and gained experience in international matches, including stints in South Africa and the United Kingdom. Known for my dedication to the sport, I honed my skills and developed a deep understanding of the game.

I have demonstrated strong leadership qualities throughout my cricketing career. While specific details about my role as a captain aren’t widely available, my time as a cricketer, representing Delhi at various levels, suggests I likely took on leadership responsibilities during my playing days. Captaincy in cricket often requires qualities like strategic thinking, decision-making, and the ability to inspire a team.

I have also taken on the role of a guest speaker, sharing my experiences and insights as both a former cricketer and an entrepreneur. I has spoken at various events and platforms, offering valuable advice on entrepreneurship, sports, and leadership. My background in cricket, combined with my successful transition into the business world, makes me an inspiring figure for audiences interested in sports management and starting our own ventures.
