On Wednesday, a few days after being added to the Indian squad for the remaining three Test matches against England, uncapped wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel said that if he makes his debut for the national team, he would like to dedicate it to his father. In a recent video shared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India's official X account, Jurel said that whenever he can't understand something, he goes to his father, whom he also called his "hero," and added that his father has always guided him.
Jurel said, "If I get the Indian cap, I would like to dedicate this moment to my father. Because he's my hero. Whenever I just fail to understand something, I just talk to him, and he always guides me.”
