Vishnu Solanki’s father passes away just 2 weeks after passing away of his newborn child

Vishnu Solanki was dealt with another shocking news just 2 weeks after the death of his newborn child. On 10th February 2022, Vinod became a father to a baby girl. However, disaster struck him as the girl died the very next day.

However, Solanki did not let this bog him down as he returned back to his Ranji Trophy duties and scored a ton against the Chandigarh outfit. But then, on 27th February 2022, Solanki’s father passed away in his hometown, but the batter attended his father’s funeral only through a video call.

An official from the Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) stated that Vishnu was under no compulsion after his daughter’s death to resume playing, and could have stayed back with his family. The official further added that the batter did not want to leave his team behind, and it is this quality that makes Vishnu a special person.

“Vishnu had the option of not returning after his daughter’s death but the team man that he is, he didn’t want to leave his team in the lurch. That’s what makes him a special human being,” said the official.
