Parthiv Patel opens up about losing his finger

Parthiv Patel debuted for India long ago. His inconsistency as well as MS Dhoni’s consistency kept him out from representing India.

However, Patel is a constant name when it comes to the domestic circuit as well as the Indian Premier League.

Now, in the Insta live, he spoke about how he lost his baby finger and the difficulties he had to face while playing the game.

“My finger came in the door when I was six (years old) and it got cut,” he said during an Insta live session.

It is slightly difficult in a way because the last finger doesn’t fit in the wicket-keeping gloves. So I tape it down the gloves so that it stays joint. I don’t know how it would’ve been if I had all the fingers but when I look back, it feels good to represent India as a wicket-keeper with nine fingers,” the 35-year-old added.
