Akash Deep started his career with a tennis ball and his journey eventually reached international cricket. He once told in an interview that his father always wanted him to do a government job, for which Akash Deep also gave many exams, but he did not write anything in the paper. He only had the passion in his mind to become a cricketer.

In his childhood, people used to taunt him and his friends. His family members used to advise him to stay away from him. Akash Deep also said that many children used to tell their children to stay away from Akash because he did not study and that their children would get spoiled in his company.

Akash Deep lost both his father and brother forever some time ago, but despite being broken from within during such difficult times, he did not lose courage and made a place in the Indian Test team by performing brilliantly.
