    U19 WC: From Tennis To Cricket, ‘grateful’ Parunika Sisodia Determined To Make Her Mark

    Yamuna Sports Complex: Initially, Parunika Sisodia seems like any other teenager, with sparkling eyes and an honest smile. Parunika, however, isn’t your average Indian teenager; she played tennis as an Under 12 player in New Delhi, looking up to Serena Williams and Sania Mirza.

    However, in January 2018, while watching her father, Sudhir, teach cricket at Yamuna Sports Complex in East Delhi’s Surajmal Vihar, Parunika became interested in the sport, trading her tennis racquet for a cricket ball.

    Since making that transition, her cricketing career has been through its ups and downs. But with gratitude, maturity and humour in her words, Parunika is poised to significantly contribute to India’s U19 Women’s T20 World Cup campaign, aiming to retain the title they won in 2023.
