Huge Loss for Himachal Pradesh Cricket
In a short span of time, the pacer was an integral part of the side. He was not only taking wickets but had a pretty good economy rate where he made the batters work hard for runs. The Himachal Pradesh’s next match is against Nagaland on 17th January.
The Cricketer was cremated at Bhabhor Saheb crematorium on January 13 (Friday). He was in Gujarat with his team-mates for the match but didn’t take part due to bad illness. He was the go to bowler for the captain as his contribution to the Himachal Pradesh Cricket was invaluable.
