'Met Virat But Couldn't Speak, Felt Nervous': Pooja Vastrakar Recalls Star-struck Moment
"I met Virat in South Africa. But I didn't talk to him. Because we were at the airport, and I thought he was occupied. I was nervous, maybe, so I didn’t speak to him because he’s someone with a busy schedule. And I never felt the need for it. Because if you go to the NCA (BCCI CoE), you meet all the players there. There are coaches. We have so many senior players in our team. So, they help us with small things. So, I didn't talk to him at that level,” Pooja, who also represents RCB, told IANS during an exclusive interaction.
The candid admission offered a rare glimpse into the human side of one of India's most experienced all-rounders, who has represented the country across formats and featured in the Women's Premier League for both the Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
