Emotions took over Bollywood actor Ayushmann Khurrana at the DY Patil Stadium during the India versus Bangladesh match on Sunday when he touched the coveted Women’s Cricket World Cup trophy in his capacity as UNICEF India’s national ambassador, along with a bunch of kids. “That was the best moment of the day.
Touching the trophy and placing it was a very special moment for me because I always wanted to be a cricketer as a kid. I’ve also been a sports presenter during the initial years of my career so, being a cricket fan, this was quite surreal,” Khurrana, who has represented the Panchkula district cricket team in Haryana as a leg-spinner, told mid-day.
