Digvijay Deshmukh was born on 12th April 1998 in Ambajol, Beed District of Maharashtra. His father was a school teacher and his mother was a housewife. Right from the childhood days, his ambitions were pretty clear. He always wanted to represent India at the highest level.

Digvijay Deshmukh came through the ranks after he represented Maharashtra in the CK Nayudu Trophy. He can bowl at 133-134 kmph consistently and can swing the ball both ways. That’s a very impressive skill to have at such a young age. He gives a lot of credit for this to his state coach Surendra Bhave.

Digvijay Deshmukh made his T20 debut in Syed Mushtaq Ali trophy in the season of 2019-20 for Maharashtra. He took 9 wickets from 7 matches and looked impressive.

Apparently, Digvijay Deshmukh was playing in a U-14 school tournament in Mumbai when one of the assistant directors of the film spotted him. He was called for the audition and was offered the role. Digvijay accepted the role only because the character of Ali was all about playing cricket. Digvijay Deshmukh would hope that just like ‘Ali’, he can go all the way and represent India on the highest stage.

Digvijay Deshmukh shared a special bonding with his on-screen co-stars Sushant Singh Rajput and Rajkumar Rao. He promised Sushant that he would meet him in Mumbai only after becoming a professional cricketer. But unfortunately, Sushant passed away just recently and Digvijay couldn’t complete his promise.

Digvijay Deshmukh on Sushant Singh Rajput’s death

“He was passionate about cricket. On the last day of the shoot, I had promised him I’d not meet him till I became a decent level cricketer. This year, when I got selected to play for Mumbai Indians, I decided to meet him but then the lockdown happened and now he is no more. I wish the lockdown wouldn’t have been there, at least then I would have been able to fulfil the promise I made to him. I failed to do so.  I wanted to keep the promise. I regret it”
