Using the ‘What were you doing when you were a teenagerTo install Sports excellence A teenage athlete is now ancient. In this generation of ‘Abha’ and ‘Sigma’, 17 -year -old Lamine is an example of Yamal winning the euro, or 18 -year -old Luke Littler is to become Darts Champion.

The day 18 -year -old Km Antoneli stunt her first qualifying in the Mercedes F1 car, the Delhi Capital Women’s Premier League (WPL) is set to face Mumbai Indians in the final. And at the center of Delhi’s campaign, there is a 19 -year -old due to another title. Nikki Prasad. Except, she has already won a lot.

It was subject to Nikki’s captaincy that India won the Under -19 Women Asia Cup in December last year. In February this year, the nation earned its second under -19 Women’s T20 World Cup title. Again, under his leadership.

And now, he is only one step away from another title, in which the WPL Trophy is in sight. Is he ready? As much as she can ever, as Nikki tells The Quint,

Behind it, a mother

That, Nikki has led several teams to India except India, Karnataka has won the U-19 and India-A captaincy trophies, due to a early beginning at the age of just six.

His owner had no academic implication towards the game, although his mother knew that she could only give priority to excel.

It is not that Nikki is ever afraid of responsibilities that may seem very important for her age. Conversely – he reveals under Duras. Nevertheless, he is sufficiently clear to accept the weight of expectations.

Wpl: a learning state

Although his WPL shows are limited – playing seven matches, but batting only twice for 53 runs – Prasad has absorbed invaluable lessons from the aristocratic class of cricket.

Given the legends, he has formed an indelible bond with 24-year-old vice-captain of Delhi, Jemimah Rodrigues.

On short -term goals and long -term vision

The only example where Nikki faced fellow finalist Mumbai Indians bowlers, that too was his first game for Delhi. Chasing 165, Delhi was reeling at 76/4 when the teenager played a knock of 35 runs out of 33 delivery.

Reflection on this before the final, she says:

In the final, she wants to repeat the feat.

However, it is about today. Nikki’s ambitions move very much.
