Singer and actor HARDY SANDHU was once a cricketer!

Hardevinder Singh Sandhu aka Hardy Sandhu who has created a sensation on YouTube with his song titled ‘Backbone’ started his career as Cricketer.

He played for Punjab over decades as a right-arm fast bowler. He played three matches in first class cricket and took 12 wickets.

However, despite being told all through his training, he entered the playing field without warming up and got himself injured. It cost him his first dream—cricket.
