5) Mandeep Singh
During the Indian T20 League 2020 season, cricketer Mandeep Singh lost his father mid-season. As the Covid-19 pandemic was at its peak, Singh could not travel back to his hometown to attend his father’s last rites.
The 28-year-old played a match for his Punjab franchise the same day. And paid the perfect tribute to his late father by scoring a brilliant 66 against Kolkata in the next game.
