Leg break bowler Parshvi Chopra took 11 wickets in the World Cup
3 batters were dismissed in the semi-finals and 2 in the final
New Delhi. Parshvi Chopra, who emerged as the star spinner of Team India in the T20 World Cup, took a total of 11 wickets in 6 matches of the tournament. In the final match, he made 2 players of England his victim. Parshvi, who troubled the batter with her rotating balls in the World Cup, used to go round and round herself. Actually, this 16-year-old spinner was once crazy about skating. The passion was to such an extent that Parshvi used to call skating as her first love.
There is an atmosphere of celebration across the country on the historic victory of the Under-19 women’s team. There is happiness in Bulandshahr’s Secunderabad as well. Parshvi is from here. According to leg-break bowler’s father Gaurav Chopra, Parshvi used to watch cricket matches since childhood. However, he had a passion for skating. She was doing well in it too. Then suddenly his mind shifted from skating to cricket. Now this game has become his life.
According to Gaurav, we did not allow any shortcoming in Parshvi’s coaching. He joined two cricket academies, so that he could learn more and more everyday. An academy runs only three to four days a week. He said, Parshvi has climbed the first step of success. The journey is long and the age of learning never ends.
4 overs 5 runs 4 wickets
Parshvi took 4 wickets for just 5 runs in 4 overs while bowling tremendously in the match against Sri Lanka in the World Cup. He also took 3 wickets for 20 runs in 4 overs in the semi-final against New Zealand. According to Parshvi’s mother Sheetal Chopra, she has been working hard on sports since she was 10 years old. At the age of 12, he gave his trial, but the selection did not happen. Passionate Parshvi tried again the next year and achieved success.
