Gavaskar Actually Did It: He Got Jemimah That Bat-Guitar
What Happened
- Jemimah Rodrigues absolutely smashed it in the 2025 Women's World Cup semi against Australia — 127 not out, under massive pressure.
- That knock helped India chase down 339, get them into the final, and they ended up winning the whole thing at home.
- After that, Sunil Gavaskar — proper legend of Indian cricket — said if India won the World Cup, he'd have a music session with her.
The Present
- Gavaskar actually kept his word. Turned up with a custom-made guitar shaped like a cricket bat.
- He gave it to her just before the Women's Premier League kicked off in January 2026. Jemimah's now captaining Delhi Capitals.
- The guitar wasn't just a cricket thing — Jemimah's properly into music, so it hit both her loves.
The Moment
- The two of them did a duet together, singing and playing — the whole promise delivered.
- Videos went all over social media. Jemimah looked absolutely chuffed.
- It was one of those lovely moments where the old guard and the new lot just connect, you know?
Why It Matters
- For Jemimah: It's a massive nod to what she did — one of the best innings Indian women's cricket has ever seen.
- For Gavaskar: Shows he's not just some distant legend — he's still part of it, backing the next generation.
- For everyone else: It's just nice, isn't it? A promise kept, respect shown, cricket celebrated properly.
