Sunil Gavaskar keeps his World Cup promise to Jemimah Rodrigues in a memorable jam session

Fulfilling the promise he’d made to Jemimah Rodrigues after India won the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup, Sunil Gavaskar joined her for a jam session and presented her with her very own ‘Bat-ar’, a one-of-a-kind bat-guitar created by Nike that brings together her love for cricket and music.

Shared on their Instagram handles, the candid exchange was a celebration of Jemimah, her recent achievements in sport, and infectious energy.

The Bat-ar was handcrafted by artist Nishant Fogaat, and imagined by Nike to celebrate Jemimah not just for what she does on the pitch, but for who she is beyond it – celebrating the interests, personality and creativity that shape her as both a cricketer and a person.
