The spotlight grows with every match, but is the pressure getting too much for India’s young batter?
Veteran pacer Mohit Sharma shared a simple message: stay calm and play your natural game.
“It’s an important match for him, but he shouldn’t feel too much pressure. He’s still in the running for ODIs and Tests as a possible replacement for Rohit Sharma, so there’s no need to stress,” he told Cricbuzz.
“He’s proved himself every time so far and is very confident. Not scoring in one game isn’t a big deal. Just one good innings of 30-35 runs, and the hundreds will follow,” he added.
Despite recent struggles, the youngster has already impressed at the top level. His performances show why selectors still support him.
Support from experienced players can make a big difference. Mohit’s words show the team still fully trusts his ability.
Can the youngster prove his critics wrong and step up when India needs him most? The third ODI could be his chance to make a big statement.
