WPL 2023: 'What Is The Financial Security? Even If You Win, Who Would Recognise You?' Recalls Reema Malhotra

By IANS News March 04, 2023 • 10:13 AM View: 1177

"I once said to a player's father, 'uncle, there's women's cricket, please let her play'. He would retort back with, 'What is the financial security? Even if you win, what will you get and who would recognise you'?"

"I saw this myself as had two-three friends who played really well. But their parents never supported them and their careers got over at the college level. The dreams they had, if they had got that bit of support, they could have been fulfilled," she recounts to IANS.
