Quotes
Yash Thakur
Uncapped Indian pacer
“Harsh Dubey (his Vidarbha teammate) and I had just landed in Nagpur. As I was collecting my luggage and heading out, my phone started buzzing with messages, and I got a call from my friends. They told me, 'You got selected!' and congratulated me. I did not know anything about it at that moment, so I checked online and realised I had been selected for the Zimbabwe tour. It was a surreal feeling”
