The jump of joy was understandable when he crossed the magical three-digit brand against Scotland at the meeting of Super Six of the World Cup T-20 of women (under 19) (under 19) on Tuesday in Kuala Lumpur. Because, Trisha Gongadi, 16, has created history by becoming the first century in the history of the championship!
The best part of being his father G. Ramireddy was there in place to join the celebrations.
For someone who was “not sold” in the recent League of High-Profile (WPL) woman, which was a great disappointment, the brilliance of the Trisha starter with the bat could be a reminder of his immense talent, if one needed it .
First memory of seeing the Cricket game
As for thousands of young talents throughout the country, the unforgettable six of the captain of India Mahendra Singh Dhoni to point out the triumph of India in the World Cup final of 2011, Trisha was not different because that was the first I remember watching a Cricket game on television.
Life changed dramatically once their parents went from their hometown Bhadrachalam to Hyderabad to let Trisha pursue her passion for the game.
And, fortunately, he joined St. John’s Coaching Foundation, a center that produced characters like Vvs Laxman and molded the raw talent of someone like Mithali Raj. At the age of nine, he played for the state team of Hyderabad Under 16
She played without fear, with great time: Trisha’s first coach
Trisha’s first coach, P. Srinivas (more popular like Srinu) by St. John’s recalled that at the time he saw her beaten on the networks, they could feel that spark of rare talent. “She played without fear and with great timing all those shots,” he said.
Significantly, the coach made sure there were no manipulations with his original batting and the only advice for her was to change the legs of the rhythm and the results are there so that everyone sees it: he was already a member of the 2023 World Cup (Sub- 19) In South Africa.
Mithali Raj suggestion
One of the important suggestions he received was from the former captain of India Mithali Raj, who felt Trisha, 12, despite his consistency, should not be taken to the qualification of last year students. “Let’s not hurry. She will go to places. Mithali told us, ”Srinu recalled. Of course, Trisha is determined to climb new heights!
