Sunil Gavaskar’s Advice
“I think he’s going to develop his game even more. Sitting with Rahul Dravid, he will learn how to temper his innings – he is only going to get better and better. I do believe that he is someone we shouldn’t praise to the skies.
“And in this case, we just get the feeling, even in his very first game, with the first ball he faced, he hit it for six. Now, that should not become something he feels he must live up to every time. Experienced bowlers will think, ‘Ah, he wants to hit the first ball for six?’ They will bowl it short, and then he might get out. Then, he could start to worry and overthink things.
“But really, anyone who scores 50 or 60 in a T20 match has done well. To get a hundred at this level is absolutely magnificent, especially against the quality of bowlers he’s facing today – literally some of the best in the world,” Gavaskar added.
