Harmanpreet Kaur shares emotional story posing with T20 World Cup trophy in London
At a London event ahead of the ICC Women's World Cup, Harmanpreet Kaur appeared with the trophy as photographer Sutej Pannu took her pictures and gifted them to her.
Photographer Sutej Pannu's latest video featuring Harmanpreet Kaur is winning hearts online. Filmed alongside the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 trophy in London, the clip captures a deeply personal side of the India captain as she reflects on the journey behind the jersey.
The video opens with Harmanpreet posing beside the coveted trophy, her calm smile revealing little of the years of hard work, sacrifices and determination that have brought her to this moment.
As Pannu photographs her, the interaction feels less like a formal photoshoot and more like a celebration of a cricketer who has spent over a decade carrying the hopes of Indian women's cricket.
In the clip, Harmanpreet speaks candidly about what representing India means to her. "This jersey means a lot to me. It means everything," she says, her words reflecting the pride and responsibility that come with leading the national side. She also remembers the unwavering support of her father, who played a crucial role in nurturing her cricketing ambitions. "I shared all my dreams with him. He always supported me," she says.
The emotional moment is followed by a thoughtful surprise from Pannu. After photographing the Indian skipper alongside the trophy, he presents her with one of the portraits from the shoot. Harmanpreet receives the photograph with a smile, creating one of the most memorable moments of the video.
