Let us tell you, in the last edition of the Women’s Premier League, Shreyanka Patil was seen playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore. During his conversation with GeoCinema, he answered many great questions. Shreyanka Patil made her international debut against the England women’s team in December last year. What did Shreyanka Patil say about her debut series against England? Actually I did not get the call. Kanika Ahuja called me and congratulated me. I asked him why he was congratulating me. After that I opened my WhatsApp and saw that I had been added to the online group of the Indian team. After this I came to know that it is true and I am going to play for the Indian team. I have played for the Indian A team before and my next goal was to play for Team India. How did you feel making your debut at Wankhede Stadium? I thought my debut would be in Bangalore but it happened in Mumbai where many people’s dreams come true. My dream also came true in Mumbai. I felt very honored when all the fans were cheering for the national team. I was bowling and suddenly I felt very excited. I felt happy to see that my family members had also come here to watch the match. How did you feel playing under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur? It was the first time when I was playing under Harman Didi and he had given me free rein to bowl. He told me to bowl the way I want to bowl. They have seen me in the Women’s Premier League and I felt very good that the support staff and Amol sir also supported me a lot. Experience of playing in the previous edition of the Women’s Premier League I really enjoyed playing in the Women’s Premier League. Not only with batting and bowling, I also had a lot of fun with my teammates and made many friends. Because of this tournament, I got to learn a lot from Smriti Mandhana, Sophie Devine and Alyssa Perry. I am also eagerly waiting for the upcoming edition. Experience of meeting Virat Kohli This moment was the best for me. We were all sitting and thinking this was just another team meeting. After this I saw that someone was coming wearing a black shirt. When he came forward I said, hey this is Virat Kohli. We had played five matches till then and had lost all of them. Many people were telling me to ask questions but not a single word was coming out of my mouth. He encouraged us very well. How prepared is Shreyanka Patil for the second edition of WPL? I have got a taste of the first edition of the Women’s Premier League and now I feel…
WPL opened my eyes to…: Alyssa Healy praises Indian tournament

After taking over from Meg Lanning as captain? Alyssa Healy- I am very happy for this achievement but it is very difficult to replace her. Meg has been very successful as a captain and as a player and we all know this. It will be very difficult for me to replace him. If asked from my point of view, I have got a very good opportunity and I would like to perform well as captain for my team. It would be very important for me to take on this role full time and I am completely ready for this challenge. Alyssa Healy’s plans regarding captaincy Alyssa Healy: As a captain I have no ego at all. This is not a dictatorship. I am not here to tell everyone how to play. I just want to tell the upcoming players the importance of the game and learn a lot from the senior players. There are many excellent young players who will perform very well for the Australian team in the future. Many people have captained their respective teams in domestic cricket also. I encourage everyone to raise their voice for themselves. This is very important if the team has to remain successful in the coming 10 to 15 years. What did you learn from WPL? Alyssa Healy: The Women’s Premier League opened my eyes to what it’s like to be an Indian cricketer. We used to come here and play against the Indian team like the Australian team. With the Women’s Premier League came a new identity as men’s and women’s cricket. We also get to learn a lot from Indian players. What is the cultural difference between India and Australia? Alyssa Healy: We love sports in Australia. We don’t think too much about just one game. We love our athletes a lot. Cricketers are considered celebrities in India and Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana are billboards. Seeing all this has opened my eyes. What would you like to say about the big bid for husband Mitchell Starc in IPL? Alyssa Healy: I was in the gym preparing for the Test match at the time of the auction. It was a bit of a surprise to me when such a big bid came in on them. This was really a huge amount. According to Stark, this is very good for him. Starc has not played IPL for the last 8 years and this will be a new experience for him. He would also like to play his role well. 4 South African opening batsmen who have scored 50+ scores most times in Test cricket Best playing 11 of the year 2023 5 batsmen who have scored the most centuries in test cricket away from home (active players) 5 Indian players who have scored the…
