Bio

'Flash' - fans fondly call him for his menacing pace down the right flank and his blistering run came handy for the Blue Tigers time and again. His deadly run with the ball against Myanmar and pristine pass to Chhetri eventually ended India's 64-year-long frustrating winless run. Had his volley ended up hitting the target and not hit the crossbar against hosts UAE in the AFC Asian Cup UAE 2019, India could have tasted a glorious victory in the continental flagship tournament.
