Deep Josan, born on 17th January 1991, in the bustling cricket hub of Chandigarh, India, has etched his name in the annals of cricket with finesse, resilience, and sheer skill. As a young boy, Deep was captivated by the game’s magical allure, often spending countless hours in the gully capturing local batsmen with his precise deliveries, even if the wickets were makeshift ones. His unparalleled passion for cricket became apparent early on, and by his teen years, it was evident that Deep was destined for something beyond the ordinary.

His dedication bore fruit when he made his way into the Punjab Under-19 team. From here, his journey snowballed. A consistent performer, he soon grabbed the attention of selectors, making his much-awaited professional debut for Punjab in the Ranji Trophy, where his versatile bowling style—capable of swinging the ball both ways—turned heads. His ability to adapt his bowling according to the pitch and opponent marked him as a bowler of rare quality.
