Shefali Verma recently made a lot of headlines for her batting. She scored 444 runs in 5 matches with 1 century and 3 half-centuries for her team in the Senior Women's ODI Challenger Trophy. After this brilliant performance, Shefali may once again seem to be making a comeback in Team India. But what happened when she was shown the way out of the team? This female opener of Indian cricket was not selected in the team for the Australia tour in November last year. Shefali suppressed the news of being dropped from the team at that time. She did not tell it to her father. The question is why?

Father had a heart attack, so the news was hidden

20-year-old Shefali did not tell her father about being dropped from the team because he had suffered a heart attack two days ago. Now in such a situation, if she had told him about her ouster, the situation could have worsened. Therefore, she decided to tell him the news later. This thing related to Shefali came to light during her conversation with Indian Express.

Shefali told the news to her father after a week

Shefali Verma said that she did not want to tell her father because he had suffered a heart attack two days ago. She kept the news hidden from him until he recovered. Shefali said that he was in the hospital when a week later she told her father Sanjeev Verma about being dropped from the team.

Shefali's father was her first coach

For Shefali, her father means a lot to her. He is also her first coach. In her childhood, he used to wake up Shefali every day at 5 am and take her for cricket practice. Now once again, he wishes to see his daughter in the Indian team jersey. Shefali has already tried for this. The wait is just for the next team selection.
