The cricketer appeared on the show Breakfast with Champions and shared why his parents missed witnessing his special moment. He said, “It was an opportunity for me to prove all the hard work that I had done from my childhood and this was something I didn’t want to let go. And I remember when Sachin (Tendulkar) was walking out after getting dismissed and as I was entering the Lord’s ground, it was a common belief that when Sachin gets out, India used to lose the match. In fact, my parents went for a movie after Sachin got out, they went for Shah Rukh‘s Devdas, in a theatre near my house. Didn’t see their son play. When we won the match, the entire colony came to my house, saw the door locked. They thought the family has done this themselves since Kaif won them the match.”
