Rags-to-Riches:

Most of us have heard the story of rags to riches. Few journeys are so inspirational that it is even worth counting. Here is the story of Yashasvi Jaiswal, the IPL-2023 Born Hero. Jaiswal was just 11 years old when he left his home and travelled to Mumbai. He lived in tents at Azad Maidan and had to sell Pani-puri to earn his living. Look at him today when he smashed 122 off 62 balls, it looks like he is playing similarly to his childhood days. Where he knocked 16 fours and 8 sixes to snatch the glory. Yashasvi was so confident and heroic since his childhood days of playing cricket. Even Sachin Tendulkar was clapping when Yashasvi Jaiswal notched his maiden century in the ongoing IPL. Jwala Singh, his Coach stated being proud after the maiden century against such a powerful team MI (Mumbai Indians). We strongly remember when Yashashvi made their debut in 2020 as part of Rajasthan Royal. And currently, he is in the run for orange Cap holder in an ongoing session of IPL.

IPL has always been a game-changer for many domestic players. Who’s not aware of Uttar Pradesh’s cricket star, Rinku Singh, while proving his potential in the last session with KKR? Even after jumping into the professional career of cricket, the stardom of Rinku Singh went unnoticed. Even after the regular performance in the Uttar Pradesh Cricket team. The 2023 IPL session went as a turning point for Rinku Singh as a leading run scorer for KKR. The slow yet satisfying journey of Rinku Singh is admirable and inspiring. Out of several challenges in his life, his family stood with him in all his struggles. His father always pushed him for a job, whereas his mother supported him in several instances. This was not it, his brother started working for a coaching centre. Finally, he got a job where he had to clean everything before the one gets up. It was equal to being a cleaner, which he never liked and left. After having such a challenge, longing for glory in IPL was a real victory for him.
