Was A Bit Nervous And Excited; Will Bounce Back Pretty Well, Says Shreyanka Patil
Caribbean Premier League: 2023 had turned out to be a breakthrough year for off-spin all-rounder Shreyanka Patil, who came into the spotlight through brilliant performances in Women’s Premier League (WPL), the Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) and in Emerging Women’s Asia Cup.
On Wednesday, Shreyanka’s 2023 hit a crescendo when she made her international debut in the T20I series opener against England at the Wankhede Stadium. With her bowling, Shreyanka returned with figures of 2/44, taking out captain Heather Knight and wicketkeeper Amy Jones, though she dropped a return catch of Player of the Match Nat Sciver-Brunt.
“Firstly, I was very happy that I got the (India) cap. I was a bit nervous and excited. I couldn’t get the proper sleep, but then after the first one-two balls, I was fine and that I belong here. It is not a big deal, but we will look at our shortcomings, what can we do better in the next game. It’s just a learning step and we will bounce back pretty well.”
