Despite his impressive performance in the Ranji Trophy, young Tamil Nadu left-arm pacer Gurjapneet Singh has made it clear that he will not be completely satisfied until he represents the Indian team. "My main goal is to play for India. That goal is yet to be fulfilled. I will feel real satisfaction only when it is fulfilled," he said.
Gurjapneet shone in the Ranji Trophy match against Uttarakhand, which began at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. He took 4 crucial wickets for just 34 runs. His brilliance saw Uttarakhand, the semi-finalists of last season, collapse for 134 runs in the first innings. He took the wicket of Avnish Sudha (54) and sent key batsmen like Aarav Mahajan, Dega Nischal and Kunal Chandela to the pavilion.
Gurjapneet, who missed the last match due to the recent India-A series against Australia, expressed satisfaction with his performance in this match. He said that he observed the movements of the batters and bowled by changing the angles according to the wicket. The pacer, who served as the net bowler for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, has also served as a net bowler for Team India in the past. He explained that bowling to top players like Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill in the nets has increased his confidence.
