India’s Arundhati Reddy and Shree Charani reflect on their early struggles, family support, and unique journeys to cricket, as they gear up to represent India in the Women’s World Cup at home.
Hyderabad : India fast bowler Arundhati Reddy says the 2007 T20 World Cup that India won inspired her to start playing cricket, but it was the 2011 World Cup at home—with Sachin sir being part of it and everything that happened that year—that really left a mark on her.
“The kid inside me always wanted to play for India and win a World Cup for the country. Now that I have the chance to play a 50-overs World Cup at home, I am truly grateful to God for this opportunity. With two matches happening in Vizag, the support is very important. Hopefully, we will win,” Arundhati said in a chat with JioHotsta
