Cricketer Ishant Sharma joins Anand Narasimhan on Jazba for a special edition of The Right Stand, reflecting on his cricketing journey, the passion of representing India and the lessons he has learned throughout his career. Speaking about what it means to play for the country, Ishant says, “Especially when you represent your country there is some kind of a passion. That passion reflects in your bowling, fielding and everything else.” He also reflects on what happens when the roles and identities that define a sportsperson eventually disappear. As he puts it, “Till you are a captain, till you are a batsman, only till then will world ask you. When that is taken away, what matters is how you are as a person.”From the intensity of playing for India to understanding who you are when the game is no longer defining you, Ishant’s reflections offer a deeper look at the person behind the cricketer. -right-standn18oc_india CNN-News18 is your trusted source for breaking news, updates, and in-depth analysis from around the world.
