‘I will play Cricket for as long as I desire’: Utkarsha Pawar

In an interview with the Marathi cricket podcast ‘Coffee, Cricket Aani Barach Kaahi’, Utkarsha emphasized the fact that she will play cricket for as long as she desires and as long as her physical condition allows. “In a freewheeling interaction, the right-arm Maharashtra pacer said, “I will continue to play cricket for as long as I wish and as long as my body allows me. One can be 200 per cent sure about it, not just 100 per cent.”

“I am repeatedly asked about my career now that I am married. Not from the family but only the outsiders seem to be worried about it. My family is supportive. Ruturaj’s family is extremely supportive, our relatives are also supportive… but the question does come up from the outsiders,” Utkarsha said, speaking from the West Indies.

I will continue to play cricket as long as I wish and as long as I can since my life revolves around cricket,” she added.
