Wiser, Sharper And Hungrier: Shafali Verma’s Next Chapter As India Player Set To Begin In England
Shri Ram Narain Cricket Club: In September 2019, a teenager with a jaw-dropping bat swing and a fearless attitude lit up Indian cricket. Shafali Verma, then just 15, exploded onto the international scene with a power game that left many opposition bowlers rattled. But in sports, evolution is inevitable, and in Shafali’s case, it became essential.
As India kick off its five-match T20I series against England in Nottingham, Shafali, now 21, returns to the national fold with the same aggression, but now layered with wisdom, sharpness in the game and a desire to get bigger scores at the international level.
Dropped from the national set-up for almost eight months after last year’s T20 World Cup and lean scores in subsequent ODI series against New Zealand, Shafali’s tough times deepened as her father Sanjeev suffered a heart attack and was in the hospital.
