Incidentally, the journey of cricket started

Dubey recently told The Indian Express that he started cricket with a chance. “My father and I were going to buy books, then we saw the practice of cricket. I asked him what it was, so he told that cricketers become here. I liked this and I decided that I had to play the same. “
