In the ongoing T20 Mumbai League, Eagle Thane Strikers have emerged as one of the standout teams, securing a well-deserved spot in the semi-finals. A significant contributor to their success has been spin-bowling all-rounder Shashank Attarde, who has consistently delivered impactful performances under the leadership of Atharva Ankolekar.
When asked about the standout performers in IPL 2025, Attarde highlighted fellow Mumbai batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sai Sudharsan as the players he believes have the potential to elevate Team India to remarkable heights.
Attarde, representing the Thane-based outfit, has featured in five matches so far and has proven to be a vital cog in the team’s bowling attack. The seasoned campaigner has picked up 10 wickets, showcasing his ability to break partnerships and apply pressure in key phases of the game. Boasting an impressive bowling average of 13.10 and an economy rate of just 6.55, the right-arm off-spinner has demonstrated remarkable control and consistency on the field.
