Bengaluru (Kernataka) [India], January 20: In a remarkable turn of events, Bengaluru’s cricket prodigy, Mithun Chakravarthy, who once held the world record for scoring an astonishing 354* runs in a single match at the age of 16, is back on the field after overcoming a career-threatening setback.

Back in 2015, the then 16-year-old Mithun Chakravarthy stunned the cricketing world by breaking the longstanding record of a 664-run partnership between legends Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli set in 1987-88. His unbeaten knock of 354 runs in 40 overs match propelled the team to an astounding total of 729 runs, showcasing his exceptional talent and determination.

However, just a year later, adversity struck as Chakravarthy encountered a devastating blow, a career-threatening injury to his left thigh while practicing in the cricket nets. The young cricketer was forced to confront the harsh reality that his cricketing journey might be cut short. Despite the setback, Mithun Chakravarthy faced this adversity head-on with resilience and determination.

“It was a tough phase in my life. Cricket was not just a game for me, it was my passion, my life. But I knew I had to tackle this situation with strength all by myself,” shared Mithun Chakravarthy in an exclusive interview. “I spent years thinking about my lost career and opportunities due to the unexpected injury. However, my determination to return to the field was unwavering, and I took on the road to recovery with everything I had.”

The doctors advised him to step away from the game for a minimum of five years at the tender age of 17. It seemed like the end of a promising cricketing career for a player who had already left an indelible mark on the sport at such a young age. 

Fast forward to the present day, Mithun Chakravarthy, now 25 years old, has scripted an inspiring comeback story. Remarkably, just two months after undergoing modern laser surgery to address the lingering injury, Chakravarthy is back on the cricket field, displaying the same passion and determination that defined his teenage years. This swift return not only showcases his resilience but also emphasizes the effectiveness of the cutting-edge medical intervention that facilitated his rapid recovery. Acknowledging the hurdles he faced during his recovery after the surgery, Mithun shared, “The path to healing was hard, but the strides in modern medical technology were instrumental in my comeback. My inner drive and commitment played a pivotal role in overcoming the obstacles,” he emphasized.

Mithun’s former coach, Mr. JK Srikanth, who witnessed the prodigious talent during the cricketer’s formative years, expressed both admiration and a hint of sadness. “Mithun was a rare gem, his talent, dedication, and on-field skills were remarkable, making it evident that he was destined for extraordinary achievements in the world of cricket. It’s both heartening and heartbreaking to witness him overcome past challenges due to the injury and make a return to the cricketing field with the same passion. Yet, there’s a lingering sadness for the potential cut short by that unfortunate injury,” expressed Mr. JK Srikanth. 

As Chakravarthy steps back onto the cricket field after 7 long years, he not only carries the weight of personal triumph but also becomes a symbol of inspiration for those who face setbacks in their pursuits. In a world where stories of comeback and triumph resonate deeply, Mithun Chakravarthy’s journey stands as a testament to the power of resilience, determination, and the undying spirit of pursuing one’s passion against all odds.
