The accident came at a time when Robin was basking in the glory of his recent performances, especially his stellar innings for Jharkhand in the U23 Col CK Nayudu Trophy. Despite his brilliance on the field, fate dealt him a harsh blow, leaving his participation in the upcoming IPL pre-season camp uncertain.
Hailing from the humble village of Shimal in Jharkhand, Robin's journey to the IPL has been nothing short of inspiring. His father's sacrifices as a retired army personnel turned airport security guard, coupled with Robin's dedication and the guidance of his coaches, including MS Dhoni's mentor, Chanchal Bhattacharya, paint a poignant picture of perseverance and determination.
