He worked hard running a roadside paan shop to support the family. Avesh’s uncle suggested he try bowling with a leather ball, which led him toward a professional cricket career.
Avesh comes from a middle-class family in Indore. His father was passionate about cricket but didn’t have the chance to enjoy it fully because of his busy work life.
