Team India received the support of a special fan today in their World Cup match against Bangladesh. 87-year old Charulatha Patel came in to cheer for her favorite team and wanted them to win. She was on wheel-chair but at no point, it looked as if she has any lesser energy than other fans at the stadium.
Charulatha Patel’s video of cheering for team India is going viral ever since it was shared by the official handle of the Cricket World Cup. Cricket World Cup captioned the video, “Cricket really is for all ages! Meet the #TeamIndia fan whose support is simply sensational.”
Cricket really is for all ages!
