The father of Indian cricket sensation Shafali Verma has broken his silence about the national team's World Cup campaign, expressing unwavering confidence that India's moment of glory in women's cricket is rapidly approaching.
A Father's Perspective on India's Cricket Journey
In an exclusive conversation, Sanjeev Verma shared heartfelt insights about his daughter's journey and the broader evolution of women's cricket in India. "The progress we've witnessed in women's cricket is phenomenal," he stated, his voice filled with paternal pride and optimism.
The Rising Tide of Women's Cricket

Today, we see packed stadiums, media coverage, and genuine public interest. This transformation alone signals that our time is coming."
Building Towards World Cup Success
The Verma family believes India's current squad possesses all the ingredients for international success. "The team has shown remarkable growth in every department - batting depth, bowling variety, and fielding excellence. They're building something special," Sanjeev revealed.
Overcoming Challenges and Setting New Standards
Addressing the team's recent performances, he remained philosophical. "Every tournament brings learning experiences. The girls have faced setbacks but emerged stronger each time. This resilience is what will ultimately bring them World Cup success."
The Support System Behind the Stars
Sanjeev highlighted the crucial role of family support in nurturing young talent. "Behind every successful athlete stands a network of believers - parents, coaches, and mentors who provide the foundation for greatness."
The Future Looks Bright
Looking ahead, Sanjeev Verma's message to Indian cricket fans is clear and compelling: "Keep believing in this team. The dedication I see in Shafali and her teammates is extraordinary. Their time on the world stage is inevitable, and when it comes, it will inspire generations of young girls across our nation."
As women's cricket continues its upward trajectory in India, the conviction from those closest to the players suggests that World Cup glory might be closer than many think.
