'I Am Reminded Of..': Sanjay Bangar Compares Shafali Verma To This Indian Legend After Her Knock Vs PAK
Former India cricketer Sanjay Bangar reserved big praise on Shafali Verma after she played an attacking innings in India's 2024 Women's Asia Cup clash against Pakistan. Bangar said that the opener's batting approach reminds him of Virender Sehwag.The Indian team restricted Pakistan to just 108 runs after Nida Dar decided to bat first in a Group A game in Dambulla on Friday, July 19. Shafali played brilliantly as she smashed 40 runs off 29 deliveries, helping the Women in Blue achieve the target with seven wickets and 35 deliveries to spare.While dissecting the game on Star Sports, Bangar highlighted that the opener batter destroyed the opposition just like Sehwag used to do in his playing days."Whenever I see her bat, I am reminded of Virender Sehwag because Shafali leaves her imprint just like Virender Sehwag did in men's cricket. She makes the opposing team lose their morale totally in the first six overs itself because of the sort of shots she plays," he said."She played some beautiful shots. The off-drive she played, I felt it was the best shot. It was an incredible shot and it shows that she is not only destructive but is fully capable of playing shots with good technique," Bangar added.Shafali collected six fours and a six during her knock. She also went on to put up 85 runs for the opening wicket with Smriti Mandhana in just 9.3 overs to virtually end the match as a contest.
