T20 World Cup: For left-arm spinner Vaishnavi Sharma, donning the India jersey and transitioning to the senior set-up after U19 Women’s T20 World Cup win has been the realisation of a long-standing dream.

But the young left-arm spinner believes that character and humility hold greater weight than on-field performance to excel in the high-pressure world of international cricket.

So far, Vaishnavi has played 5 T20Is for India and picked five scalps at an average of 23.80 and an economy rate of 6.26, with best figures of 2/24. Despite being with the team on multi-format tour of Australia, Vaishnavi missed out on playing in T20Is, but made her ODI debut in Hobart, where she finished wicketless.
