He shared that his father, Ramji Singh, had always wished for his son to excel in life. Unfortunately, Ramji Singh passed away in 2015 due to paralysis, followed by Akash losing his elder brother within six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI dedicate this to my father. It was my father\u2019s dream that his son does something good with his life. When he was alive, I couldn\u2019t do anything. So i dedicate this performance to my father,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;Akash told reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"overcoming-personal-tragedy\">Overcoming personal tragedy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In an emotional moment, Akash revealed that he felt compelled to do something meaningful with his life after these tragic losses. He left his home to pursue cricket, finding support and a conducive environment in Bengal, where he played Ranji Trophy. The right-arm pacer acknowledged the significant role his family played in his cricketing journey, stating that the losses he experienced motivated him to pursue his dreams fearlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIt was a very emotional moment for me. I lost my father and my brother in the same year. After that I felt, I need to do something with my life. Then I left my home to play cricket. Bengal supported me well, I got a good atmosphere. I played Ranji Trophy with them. My journey in cricket, my family has a played a big role in it. Because when you lose two big people in your house, you have nothing left to lose. I came in with that mindset when I left home. I have nothing to lose, but a lot to gain,\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;added Akash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Akash-deep-2-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Akash Deep dedicates his memorable Test debut in Ranchi \" class=\"wp-image-4999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Akash-deep-2-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Akash-deep-2-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Akash-deep-2-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Akash-deep-2-360x203.webp 360w, https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Akash-deep-2.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Also READ:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/totalcric.com\/ashwin-3-wickets-away-from-smashing-huge-record\/\">Ashwin 3 wickets away from smashing huge Kumble record and join Murali, Anderson in India vs England 4th Test<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"impressive-figures-on-day-1-of-the-fourth-test\">Impressive figures on Day 1 of the fourth test<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Akash\u2019s performance on the field reflected his determination and resilience.
