Mhatre became the youngest cricket ever represented by CSK and pointed out the franchise preference for experienced players.
“What is so special about him?” The fans asked curiously. While those who are well familiar with Bombai cricket would certainly be aware of his abilities, Mhatre showed a show at the WankHhed stadium in Mumbai, giving the masses the taste of his talent. The seventeen -year -old accumulated 32 escapes out of 15 balls, so home fans were amazed by this speech of fearlessness. There was no one van for Mhat, who had broken before Rohit Sharmou.
Dinesh Lad, who is a children’s coach Rohit and Shardul Thakur, as well as the current coach of the cricket team Mumbai U-19, marked the fearlessness of the CSK dough. “He is very confident as Rohit and also extremely positive, which was certainly visible in his knocking against Mi. Rohit played the same way when he was 15 when Ayush is playing right now,” Dinesh said in exclusive interaction with Timesofindia.com.
“I noticed that Ayush’s talent and fluid stroke when we first met when he was 10 years old. He was very strange about accepting in time even when he traveled from Nala Sopar, which is very far from Bombai.

Ayush’s first dream as cricket is to represent India at the World Cup U-19. However, it seemed that the unexpected blow last year derailed his aspiration for a moment and left the dough CSK depressed and demotivated.
“Ayush was not selected last year as the Top-30 NCA players last year because he failed to perform in matches between Acampes. At that moment he was in a very depressed mentality. We started working on his technique, resulting in strengthening self-confidence. Sessions daily.
“Ayush’s impressive performance in Kaca resulted in a selection for Iranian trophy, Ranji Trophy, the Indian team U-19, Vijay Hazare Trophy and now IPL. I have never seen a cricket game so many tournaments at the age of 17.
While Ayush put in the hard courtyard in the field, he also had to perform a mental shift with respect to his diet to maintain the level of fitness necessary to excel. Kricte’s coach indulged in sincere and conscious conversation about the need to cut all forms of unhealthy food and laid his leg with regard to 17 -year eating habits.
