NSW’s Rising Cricketer Ryan Gupta on Faith and Sport

About this episode

Ryan Gupta discusses his journey as a young cricketer and how his Christian faith influences his sport.

In this episode of the FLS Podcast, we sit down with Ryan Gupta , one of New South Wales’ promising young cricketers. Ryan first fell in love with the game around the age of eight or nine, a passion that has carried him into the NSW Blues Academy as he continues to develop as an exciting player to watch. Raised in a Christian family, with his father serving as a pastor, Ryan grew up hearing the gospel from a young age. It was during high school, however, that he made his faith his own and began to take it seriously. Ryan shares about that journey, how his faith shapes his cricket, and what it looks like to follow Jesus while pursuing a career in professional sport For more interviews just like this, go to - faithlifesport.com
