The rock in Ishant's life
Pratima has stood like a rock in Ishant's life. She was there when he went through a difficult time in international cricket. Ishant was ousted from the white-ball team and his place was not secure in the Test side as well. But he hung on and worked hard to get better. Ishant has now played over 100 Test matches and has to his name over 300 Test wickets. Pratima's support has played a huge role in him achieving this.
We wish Ishant a happy birthday once again.
