"I'm overjoyed to announce the exclusive launch of my Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Having my NFTs with Rario, the largest cricket NFT platform in the world feels surreal.

"We are overjoyed to have Deepak on board. He's a young all-rounder with a lot of potential.

His addition to the Rario lineup will be celebrated by the stars already on the platform," said Ankit Wadhwa, co-founder and CEO, Rario.
Indian cricketer Deepak Hooda was a star performer for India's Under 19 team in 2014. He now plays for Rajasthan in domestic cricket and Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League. He is an all-rounder who bowls off-breaks and bats right-handed. Hooda has experience on his side and fits perfectly in the Indian team which needs a lower-order batsman who can bowl.
