We also wish him the best time ahead and he should keep making the nation proud," he said.The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has formed a three-member committee to look after the day-to-day affairs of the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association and committee head Brigadier Anil Gupta said it is a proud moment for JKCA that a Jammu boy is emerging as a fast bowler."This is the beginning of his career.
