Some Lesser Known Facts About Poonam Yadav

  • Does Poonam Yadav smoke: Not Known
  • Does Poonam Yadav drink alcohol: Not Known
  • She was always interested in sports, be it any. Her father describes that she never feared injuries or scars like most of the girls do. Her father was once adamant for not letting her play cricket, but once her mentor told him that the girl has got some real skills and that she would one day play for India, he never stopped her.
  • Her lack of height didn’t fit any other sport but proved to be a USP in cricket. Because of her small stature, she has to make a ball fly high up in the air so that it lands somewhere near the batsman. This trajectory proves to be fatal for batters as it goes even over their eye line, making them step out.
  • As of June 2017, 30% of her wickets in ODI and 20% in T20Is against right-handers have come through stumpings.
