USA's Netravalkar Continues to Impress with Wickets of Kohli and Rohit

Saurabh Netravalkar's journey from Mumbai journeyman to T20 World Cup sensation has been a remarkable one. After struggling to break into the Indian cricket scene, Netravalkar pursued a career in coding at Oracle. However, his passion for cricket remained, and he continued to play for the USA national team.

Netravalkar's breakthrough moment came in the T20 World Cup Super Over against Pakistan, where he dismissed Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan to secure a thrilling victory. His performance caught the attention of the cricketing world, and he followed it up with the wickets of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in India's match against the USA.

Netravalkar's success is a testament to his perseverance and determination. Despite facing setbacks in his cricket career, he never gave up on his dream. He also credits his success to his ability to balance his passions for cricket and coding.

"I am just happy that I can pursue both my passions," Netravalkar said. "It is all happening very fast and I am in the process of digesting it."

Netravalkar's performance has not only been a personal triumph but also a boost for cricket in the USA. The co-hosts of the T20 World Cup are hoping to use the tournament to grow the sport in the country, and Netravalkar's success is a major step in that direction.

"If our performances help the sport grow here and become part of the school and college curriculum, we will know we are on the right track," Netravalkar said.
