MUMBAI: When one met Ayush Mhatre at the Mumbai Cricket Association annual awards function on March 20, he had a T20 match the next day. "From our home in Virar, he was travelling by car for the Panvel (Navi Mumbai Premier League) matches. It used to take four hours one way," says his father Yogesh. After the semi-final played under lights, he reached home at 4 am.
But such is the teen's craze for playing, Ayush doesn't mind the travel. "He is playing matches non-stop. You can take him anywhere for a match. After the tournament, next day he had his three-day Times Shield match for Bharat Petroleum," says his school coach Sachin Koli for whose team Ayush was playing in Panvel.
