Rohit praised the young slugger, saying, “In my opinion, there’s not much to say about his batting style in this series and before this series. He understands his hitting and is advancing the inning well. That’s what you want on cricket day. You want to go big, you want to go deep in the innings. He showed it. He got hundreds of big ones. “Achieving a double 100 is not easy no matter how flat the pitch is. His next best score in that match was 34. It showed him knowing he had to be calculated and hit deep. A seeded hitter has to do it to get a hit.” Which is probably why he scored 350 plus (349) in this game. He’s very mature in the way he thinks about his game and how he approaches it.
“I didn’t play much cricket with him. I saw him for the first time in Australia in the Test series. We all know how he beat Gabba in that friendly. He played Test cricket. spent time in His ODI cricket hitting is beautiful to watch. I think he understands his game really well and that’s the key.”

I just want to play my cricket, enjoy my cricket and bat like I do now.It looks good when the numbers come out but I don’t think cricketers play numbers. And so am I. I want to go there, enjoy cricket and contribute to the team. I could have done a lot of things by playing with numbers… “The message to the players is that we are not worried about the numbers. We have a team plan and we have to try to deliver on that team plan. It is more important for us in the long run. The last five games. So, if you see me again.” Score 350 or more 4 times. I want to play with a kind of approach, I want to play cricket without risk. If you want to achieve these things, don’t look at the numbers. Even if you’re using 99 you should try it. I want to convey that kind of message, thought process, way of thinking to everyone. Fearless cricket is important, but it also requires some smarts.

I hope he continues to perform like that and it’s good for the team.It also gives him the confidence to do good and to be able to come and bowl anytime.He is very He is smart and has played a lot in domestic cricket. He gets up and he knows what to do. ”

Plans were made by several players such as Virat, Shardul and Hardik. It was a good plan. If all these plans work out for the team, we will be very happy in the end.”
