Here's Sajid Khan's story that you should know as a cricket fan ⤵️
- Lost his father early.
- His brother drove a rickshaw to support the family.
- He worked at a cricket ground and fixed cricket bats, changed grips etc.
- Finding no opportunities, he went to Dubai for work.
- He worked at the Dubai International Airport 🛫
- He worked five days a week, and played cricket in the other two 🏏
- His mother convinced him to come back. He came back, went for cricket trials, didn’t get a break until Imran Khan Sr. (the 37 year-old fast bowler now) spotted him. He was gifted a pair of shoes by Imran, the officials noticed him and he debuted for Peshawar.
Debuted in international cricket, produced a historical bowling figure in 🇧🇩, and here he is, destroying the batting order of England now. 💥
In life, if you ever feel down, remember where Sajid Khan rose up from.
