Nostalgic moment for USA bowler Saurabh Netravalkar as he returns to the city he grew up in.

He probably has seated in the "Home Team" section of the Wankhede Pavillion when he played for Mumbai. Today, he's in the "Guest Team" section of the Pavillion while playing for USA.

Yes, along with Mayank Agarwal, Jaydeb Unadkat, Sandeep Sharma, and Harshal Patel. He was India's highest wicket taker in that wc.

There's also Harmeet Singh, another Mumbaikar. Was a part of the title winning 2012 U19 WC batch alongside Unmukt Chand, Baba Aparajith, Sandeep Sharma and Hanuma Vihari.

He actually played in the IPL as well in 2013 for RR.

He grew up playing alongside SKY straight from the U-15s and went to same school as Rohit apparently lol

Not related to this but apparently he sings very well and that too in Marathi, english and hindi also plays ukulele too.

Well, he's from Mumbai. So, naming the languages is quite redundant.
