India’s high badminton participant Saina Nehwal on Wednesday singled out India cricketer Washington Sundar’s batting for particular reward, tweeting, “People don’t know this, but along with badminton, I’m a huge fan of cricket too. Especially when India is playing. I saw the brilliant performances by @sundarwashi5 in the recent series, and it was so much fun to watch him.”
The Tamil Nadu participant, who was initially picked as a web bowler for the 2020/21 India tour of Australia, received an sudden Test cap on the Gabba after a spate of accidents to a number of gamers left the guests severely depleted.
Not solely did Sundar bag the wicket of Steve Smith, he additionally scored 62 in his maiden Test innings to cobble up an important seventh-wicket stand of 123 with Shardul Thakur, which vastly helped India to win the competition and shatter the parable that Australia had been invincible in Brisbane.
During the Test collection towards England not too long ago, Sundar aggregated 181 runs in 4 innings along with his highest being an unbeaten 96.
In reply, Sundar thanked Saina for her ‘sort phrases’ and stated, “”It’s good to listen to such inspiring phrases from you!”

“@sundarwashi5 You’re welcome! What’s keeping you HIGH to hit the ground running. Let me see your playlist!,” Nehwal tweeted.
To which, Sundar replied, “Like you know, focus & concentration is key in Cricket, which is where Music keeps me going! Currently listening on loop: Better Now by Post Malone & Oruvan Oruvan Mudalali of Thalaivar!!”

Though Sundar didn’t have an incredible innings in the Royal Challengers Bangalore’s (RCB) opening match towards Mumbai Indians (MI), the place he scored simply 10 runs, the encouraging phrases from the ace shuttler may effectively encourage him in the second match towards Sunrisers Hyderabad.
