'Saw my name, couldn't process it' - Naman Dhir on his India debut

Punjab all-rounder Naman Dhir recently reflected on his remarkable path to international cricket after making his India debut against the West Indies. The youngster admitted that seeing his selection announcement left him momentarily stunned, unable to process the news for ten minutes before calling his emotional father to share the milestone.

Dhir's journey included overcoming a lengthy six-to-seven-year gap after playing Under-16 cricket before eventually making his breakthrough through the Under-25 circuit, Ranji Trophy, and the Indian Premier League. Crediting his perseverance and strong work ethic for the turnaround, he urged young players facing setbacks to maintain their dedication and keep striving toward their goals.
