‘Got The Benefit Of Being An All-rounder,’ Says Ayush Badoni On Maiden India Call-up
Ayush Badoni: Delhi cricketer Ayush Badoni believes that his decision to take up bowling a couple of years ago transformed him into an all-rounder, which helped him earn his maiden India call-up. The 26-year-old was added to India’s ODI squad for the ongoing three-game series against New Zealand after Washington Sundar was ruled out due to an injury after the first ODI.
The series is currently levelled 1-1, with both teams set to lock horns in the deciding game at the Holkar Stadium in Indore on Sunday. While Badoni didn't make it to the playing XI in the second ODI that India lost, he’d be hopeful of getting a chance, given that he’s been in top form of late, to showcase his best self.
“I was with the Delhi team, I was captain there and our next day match was the quarter-finals against Vidarbha. That’s when I got to know about it. Priyansh was my roommate, so I told him that this could happen and I’ll be going, so maybe you’ll be the captain. That was a great feeling and I feel very grateful and happy that I got this opportunity,” Badoni said on his call-up in a video shared by bcci.tv.
