Mumbai Cricketer Shashank Singh makes a move to Pondicherry from Mumbai Cricket

Shashank Singh is one of the prolific all-rounders who has been playing for DY Patil since years. He started playing cricket since 2008 playing for the under 19 team in Mumbai. He later joined DY Patil which became his 2nd home. Over the years he developed himself into a solid top order batsman who became a backbone in DY Patil’s batting line up.

Shashank who has amassed over 2100runs in this calendar year will be making a big move as he moves to Pondicherry to pursue his master’s degree. Speaking exclusively to Cricketgraph, Shashank quipped ‘till today when i am the part of the senior Mumbai team i have cherished each and every moment!! Just loved playing in that jersey, i cannot tell you how emotional it was for me but then yes i will be playing for Pondichery as i am doing my masters from there ! I would like to thank DY Patil Sports Academy because whatever big or small name i have earned in Mumbai is because of them, all thanks from the groundsman to the management staff and the talented friends I made I in the club. Also special thanks to ABEY sir and VIJAY sir for trusting my abilities and giving me the freedom to express myself, i even had people like Praveen tambe and Ashok kadam to always guide me and motivate me’

My personal coach Mr. Vidya Paradkar sir is someone who knows my game better than me, he has worked for hours with me on my technical aspects and I am very grateful to have a coach and mentor like him. Would also thank my bat maker M Ashraf providing me the best bats throughout the season. Lastly my family was my constant support all these years.. yes it’s emotional that i will be not playing for Mumbai but at the same time excited for the new journey!! Though I will be playing for DY patil but it won’t be too regular because of the state commitments and special thanks to cricketgraph for promoting talents like us, it really boosts us to perform better”
