Gouher Sultana | Never give up. A story of resilience from an Indian and WPL star.

Bhavi Devchand Episode 42

Gouhar Sultana, a renowned Indian left-arm orthodox spinner. 

Gouher has had an impressive career, spanning over two decades and marked by over 500 wickets across various formats. Beyond the statistics, the podcast explores her personal journey, highlighting her initial motivation to support her family, the pressure of transitioning to international cricket, and the crucial role of self-belief in overcoming challenges.

Gouhar candidly discusses her struggles with accepting failure and the mental health challenges she faced after being dropped from the Indian team, including seeking professional help to cope. A significant part of the conversation centers on her approach to cricket, emphasizing preparation, the importance of focusing on the process rather than solely on outcomes, and her dedication to mentoring younger players. 

Humility, resilience, hard work, giving back. An inspiration for all.
