Mumbai, Dec 6 || Indian all-rounder Deepti Sharma in an upcoming episode of the quiz-based reality show “Kaun Banega Crorepati”, will be seen telling megastar Amitabh Bachchan how her brother spotted the cricketer in her first.
Speaking to Big B, Deepti shared how his support and belief played a crucial role in shaping her early journey.
Recalling her childhood days, Deepti told Amitabh Bachchan:“I began playing cricket because of my brother. I used to accompany him to the ground just to watch him play. One day, I was sitting on the stairs when a ball suddenly came towards me.”
“I threw it back from around 40–50 metres, and it directly hit the stumps. People there immediately said, ‘This girl should be playing cricket.’ From that moment, I never looked back and started playing seriously.”
