Onkar shared with Zoom Cricket” My ultimate goal is to wear the Blue Jersey and represent India. A. I am focusing on my process and my routine. I had gained weight in covid so working on my fitness and following my routine. As I am working in an hospital for 8-10 hrs so I have to practice early in the morning and workout in the night after my duty. I am currently working on my bowling as I was an all-rounder in my ages groups but because of shoulder injury I had to undergo a surgery… Was not able to bowl properly In these two years…. Now currently i am working on my bowling with vinod raghvan who is dadar unions coach… And who was also the coach of mumbai when I played my age groups“
