An Indian man has defied the odds and fulfilled his dream of becoming a cricket player, despite losing both arms in a tragic accident as a child. Amir Hussain Lone, 26, from north India's Kashmir region uses his feet to bowl and is able to bat by holding it between his neck and shoulder. Hussain Lone was just eight years old when he was involved in an accident in his father's sawmill, which in the cruelest of ironies, made cricket bats.
