"My sister and mother were instrumental in my early days," she shared, a sense of gratitude clear in her expression. "They enrolled me in a cricket academy, and that was the first pivotal moment in my career.
Wearing the national jersey in 2014 was life-changing-it filled me with pride and gave me the motivation to keep pushing forward."
I asked her about her five-year hiatus, and how she found the strength to make such an impactful comeback. "That break was tough, no doubt, but it made me stronger," she said, with a firmness in her voice." When you've tasted what it's like to wear the tricolor on your helmet, that's all the motivation you need. Despite the injury and the long break, my love for the game kept me going. My friends and family were my pillars of support, constantly reminding me of my capabilities. And honestly, there was no other option but to work hard and perform in domestic cricket until I got back on the national stage."
