ICC Under-19 World Cup: When Ravi Kumar's 'Fauji' dad couldn't tell his son about his grenade injury in Kashmir - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - Australia - India - Bangladesh

ICC Under-19 World Cup: When Ravi Kumar's 'Fauji' dad couldn't tell his son about his grenade injury in Kashmir

Ravi Kumar's emergence as the new hero of the under-19 World Cup is not only the result of his own hard work but also due to the sacrifices of his CRPF father, who spent most of his life serving the country. The 18-year-old from Aligarh on Saturday scalped four wickets to play a pivotal role as India beat England by four wickets to lift the coveted u-19 World Cup trophy for a record fifth time. "Hum goli chalake desh seva karte hai, aur beta ball daal ke," (We fire bullets to protect our country, and my son serves the country with his bowling)," said Ravi's father assistant sub-inspector Rajinder Singh, who is now posted in a CRPF camp in the Maoist-prone Rayagada district of Odisha. Ravi was barely a toddler when Singh was badly injured in the 2006 Srinagar grenade attack which killed one and injured 11 soldiers but he never shared his trials and tribulations with his family. Singh spent "nearly whole of his life" posted in the militant-hit regions of Srinagar but always ensured that his wife and three children live and sleep peacefully.

When avid cricket fan Lata Mangeshkar fasted for India's victory during 2011 World Cup semis

singer Lata Mangeshkar's love for cricket is no secret and she had her own superstitions like any fan such as fasting for the Indian team's victory during the high voltage World Cup semifinal clash against arch rivals Pakistan in 2011. Mangeshkar, 92, one of the biggest music icons of the country, died on Sunday at a Mumbai hospital due to multiple organ failure, according to her sister Usha Mangeshkar and doctors treating her. She did not eat or drink during the nine-hour nail-biter at Mohali which India won by 29 runs to make it to the final. “I had watched the whole match and I was very tense," Mangeshkar had told PTI in an interview at that time. "Everyone in my family follows some kind of superstition when India is playing. I, Meena and Usha did not eat or drink anything during the match. I was constantly praying for victory and we had our dinner after India won,” she had said. An avid cricket fan, Mangeshkar had watched the 1983 World Cup final, which India won, from the gallery at the Lord's.
