Kent County Cricket Ground: The India U19 men’s team were recently given a tour of the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground and skipper Ayush Mhatre said he really can’t wait for the day to come, when he imagines himself coming out to bat at the historic venue.
“After seeing all of this, I can’t wait for the day when I can come here to play and bat. I will never be able to forget this day. It will always be in my mind that I want to play at the Lord’s. I even watched the stadium only before on TV,” said Mhatre in a video posted by BCCI's website on Thursday.
The right-handed opener also got to celebrate his 18th birthday at Lord’s. “It's a very special day for me that my birthday is celebrated at Lord’s and my cake cutting was also done at the venue. There will never be a bigger moment in my life, but this biggest moment feels very special. I feel very motivated and feel like I wanna come here and bat anytime,” he added.
