In addition, Ravindra performed brilliantly in the recently finished ODI World Cup 2023, which Australia won. But Ravindra made a lasting impression by amassing 578 runs in 10 World Cup matches. One of the tournament’s top run scorers was the 24-year-old.
Speaking about his experience thus far in his international cricket career, Ravindra emphasized how swiftly things have changed for him on the largest platform and called the feeling weird.
“Very strange; a lot has happened in a short period of time, and I feel really lucky to be in this place at this time.” Being able to play a game you love, cricket, and travel the world for a living is a unique opportunity for someone my age. Although there are ups and downs, I genuinely like every moment of it, according to a remark from Rachin Ravindra that ESPNcricinfo published.
“Well, I think being able to come in and play freely and enjoy my time learning from those guys who have been here for so long is a testament to the team environment.” Getting to know everyone has been wonderful, and I hope I can continue to learn from them,” he continued.
After that, I like returning to red-ball cricket: Rachin Ravindra
Rachin Ravindra also mentioned how much he loves playing red-ball cricket after switching from white-ball to red-ball cricket. Prior to the Black Caps’ next Test series against Bangladesh, the all-around talent expressed his excitement for New Zealand’s Test assignments.
“I like returning to red-ball cricket (ODIs) following that because it indicates your intention… It keeps you in a good position to score because you are practically looking to score, but here in Bangladesh, it definitely depends on the pitch’s performance and the conditions; it’s probably going to scale that back a little bit, not as many risks. By comprehending the surface and circumstances of the game, you may still play your natural game,” he continued.
