Pratik Waikar, Priyanka Ingle To Lead Indian Squads At Inaugural Kho Kho World Cup
Leading the men’s team will be Pratik Waikar. The Eklavya Award winner, who made his India debut in 2016, began playing Kho Kho at age eight, inspired by his neighbour. Despite holding degrees in Computer Science and Finance, he pursued Kho Kho professionally, securing a job through the sports quota. He captained Telugu Yoddhas to runners-up position in the Ultimate Kho Kho League and led Maharashtra to gold in the 56th Senior National Championship.
"It's a dream come true moment for me. When the officials were making the announcement, I had goosebumps. Having played Kho Kho for a very long time, I was just excited, waiting to hear my name being announced as part of the Indian team as captain. This is a huge achievement for me because leading our country at the first-ever Kho Kho World Cup on home soil is the biggest achievement of my career,” said Pratilk after the announcement.
