Aniket Choudhary Story

Aniket Choudhary was born on 28th January,1990. He is a left arm medium pacer. He is from Bikaner, Rajasthan.

 

In 2017, he was selected to bowl in the Indian cricket team's nets. Before the New Zealand series, he was called by the Indian cricket team management to bowl in the nets so that the Indian batsmen could counter the likes of Trent Boult and Neil Wagner. It was a memorable moment for him as he could bowl to Virat Kohli, one of the best batsmen in modern cricket. He impressed everyone during his stint and getting Virat Kohli and several big players out in the nets put his confidence level to another level. He recalled that after that stint, Ranji trophy was seeming to be easy and could play with much higher confidence. The inputs he received from that camp was a valuable one for him. He said that he made full use of his opportunity and was happy as he could perform well although it was just a net session. He knew pretty well that if he could bowl well there he would get noticed and maybe could get selected as well. He said this experience will always remain valuable in his career.
