Saurabh Netravalkar, who bowled the super over for the United States of America (USA) in their game against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2024, showed appreciation to Oracle for supporting his cricket career.

Netravalkar, a left-arm medium fast bowler, shot to fame after he defended 18 runs in the super over to stun the 2009 champions.

The USA pacer also dismissed India’s Virat Kohli for a golden duck during their game along with taking the wicket of Indian skipper Rohit Sharma.

In the game against Pakistan, he got the crucial wicket of Pakistan’s opening batter Mohammad Rizwan.

While Saurabh Netravalkar is receiving widespread praise for his skill on the cricket field, he also has career as a software engineer.

The pace bowler is an employee of tech giant Oracle while also pursuing his passion to play cricket for the USA.

Following Oracle’s post appreciating

Netravalkar for his brilliant performance in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024, the cricketer took to X to show gratitude to the tech giant for supporting him in pursuing a career in cricket while working as a software engineer.
