IndiaTimes Saturday, 13 January 2024
Many others might have been on a sticky wicket having lost both arms in an accident at age seven. Not Amir Hussain Lone. The 34-year-old from Kashmir’s Anantnag is scoring runs and fame, drawing Sachin Tendulkar among his cheerleaders. “Hope I get to meet him one day and get a jersey with his name. Well done for inspiring millions who are passionate about playing the sport,” Sachin wrote in a post on X recently after learning about Amir’s incredible feats on the field include bowling with his feet and batting by placing the bat between his shoulder and neck.
