Amit Mishra Shares Struggles with Depression and Career Setbacks After 2003 Debut
Former Indian cricketer Amit Mishra revealed he struggled with depression for a year and a half after being dropped from the national team following his 2003 debut. He faced setbacks in domestic cricket and felt isolated, unable to share his struggles even with family. A candid conversation with a selector helped him realize the need to improve his domestic performance. Mishra worked on his skills, made a comeback in 2008, and went on to play 22 Tests, 36 ODIs, and 10 T20Is for India.
