Coming from the Abhishek Nayar school of coaching, the 18-year-old played down his effort and thanked his “guru”, saying he has influenced him the most and dedicated his stunning 54-run knock to the former Mumbai opener.
“He has helped me in everything, the way I think about the game, the way I work towards the game, the things I eat, the way I train, he is basically my guru and everything. That’s my relationship with him,” Raghuvanshi said.
India’s highest run-getter at the 2022 U-19 World Cup, Raghuvanshi was born in Delhi, but moved to Mumbai when he was 11 to train under Nayar and Omkar Salvi. He played for Mumbai in the recent Mushtaq Ali and Vijay Hazare Trophies. “I would like to dedicate this knock to my coach, Abhishek Nayar and my teammates and the support staff. I have learned a lot staying with them. All this reverse sweep and all, he [Nayar] made me practice a lot. So, the main man is him only,” said
Raghuvanshi.
