Shreyanka Patil, who put on a magnificent performance at the Wankhede Stadium, led India to victory over England in the third Twenty20 International of the series. She was named Player of the Match for her outstanding effort, which helped the Indian women defeat the visitors by five wickets. The teenage cricket player credited her experiences playing for India A and the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) for her recent development.
Patil achieved a noteworthy career milestone prior to her debut for her country by being the first Indian cricket player to be selected for the Women’s Caribbean Premier League. Before the game, the 21-year-old’s outstanding stats of three wickets for 19 runs in her four overs spell—which included key dismissals of Sophie Ecclestone, Freya Kemp, and Bess Heath—were essential in keeping England to a meager 126 runs in their twenty overs.
“I am overjoyed, as this is my first time receiving a three-for. My parents and coach are looking on. Would love to carry on with the performance. After the game, Shreyanka stated, “It was really important that I gained experience with India A and in the WPL.
Shreyanka Patil acknowledges the support of Deepti Sharma.
The Karnataka all-rounder attributed her development to her bowling combination with Deepti Sharma, the only bowler in India with more over 100 wickets in Twenty20 Internationals. She expressed gratitude to Sharma for always pushing her to give it her all on the field. Notably, she increased the pressure on the opponents by bowling 12 dot balls. In the chase, Smriti Mandhana’s careful 48 off 48 helped India win with an over remaining.
I’m glad to be contributing. Bowling with Deepti is an amazing experience for me; she supports me and comes to talk to me both on and off the field. eager to go on the voyage. With all three wickets, I had fun. You always want to take wickets as a bowler; it’s difficult to choose the best one,” she continued.
