It is celebrated every fourth Sunday of September in India. World Daughter's Day is celebrated on September 28. The significance of this day is that it serves as a reminder of the fact that daughters are an asset to our society and there should not be any patriarchal notions attached to their birth.

"In 2007, when I missed the 50-over World Cup, that was the lowest moment in my cricketing career. I had given up on cricket. Before that, I had missed both U-15 and U-19 World Cups. In 2007, I thought I was the closest to playing the World Cup, but when they did not include me in the squad, I had almost given up on cricket," Gambhir said. However, in the same year, India was crowned champions of the maiden T20 World Cup in South Africa with Gambhir finished as the leading run-scorer in the tournament. "Then I was chosen in World T20 in 2007 and I got dismissed for a duck in the first match against Pakistan. However, as fate has it, I finished as the leading run-scorer in the World Cup and we ended up winning the tournament so one should never give up," Gambhir said.
