Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) fast bowler Umesh Yadav has had a memorable time in the IPL 2022 so far, and currently leads the chart for taking the highest number of wickets this tournament. The 34-year-old is the opening bowler for his side, as has performed brilliantly since the start of the season.
In a video shared by KKR on their official YouTube channel, he opened up almost his childhood, and how he satisfied his dream of playing for his country. “From where I belong, there will be very few boys who accept that they seem play for India. Playing and dreaming about cricket was costly for them.
“Kit, bat, pad, shoes, etc. you just can’t do it because you live in coal mines, your father goes to coal mines and does hard work. At that time I had never thought I would play for India as it was beyond my imagination,” he said.
