Watch: Mukesh Kumar gets emotional after relaying news of Test debut to mother over phone
Indian cricket team’s latest debutant Mukesh Kumar was taken over by emotions as he broke the news to his mother in India over the phone. A video released by the Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (BCCI) Instagram account shows the seamer from Bihar sharing this moment with his mother.
“My mother told me to stay happy all the time. Keep moving forward. She said her blessings are always with me. For her, all that she wants me to do is keep improving and getting better,” an emotional Mukesh said in a video shared by BCCI.
“This moment is very important for me. I can’t explain how happy I am. I made the debut in the morning and in the evening, I am talking to my mother. I am not able to understand what to say,” he added.
In the second Test against the West Indies, the 29-year-old bowled steadily but without much pace, the little movement he got from the surface wasn’t much of a threat to the batters.
A day to remember!
