Sachin Tendulkar was the record holder to score a T20I 50 when he was, 16 years and 214 days old. He had scored 59 in a test match against Pakistan. Shafali got the achievement during the age of 15 and 285 days, She scored 73 runs in 49 balls by breaking Master Blaster’s record.
Shafali was insulted and abused by the neighbors for loving cricket. Every day morning she used to cycle for more than 8kms to practice cricket. Her words “It was initially a struggle to play against the boys. I was always hit in the helmet. On some occasions, they even broke my helmet grid. But I never gave up.”
