‘Rishabh Pant And Ishan Kishan Should Learn From Kohli’- Virender Sehwag

IND vs ENG: Virender Sehwag applauds Virat Kohli

Legendary Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag was left very impressed with Virat Kohli’s knock in the second T20I. Sehwag heaped praises upon the Indian skipper for the way he scripted India’s chase of 165 runs against England. Viru went on to ask the youngsters like Rishabh Pant and Ishan Kishan should adopt certain batting techniques from Virat Kohli. He insisted youngsters carry their innings till the end once they are comfortable on the crease. Sehwag added that Sachin Tendulkar used to do the same thing.

“When it’s Virat Kohli’s days, he ensures he finishes the match and is right there till the end, irrespective of the format he is batting in. This is a special aspect of his batting. Like Ajay (Jadeja) said, Rishabh Pant and Ishan Kishan should learn from Kohli, that when it’s your day, just don’t get out. That’s exactly what Tendulkar used to do,” Sehwag told Cricbuzz.

“He used to tell me ‘if today is a good day for you, then play as long as you can, remain not out and score runs’ because what kind of day you have tomorrow, whether you’ll score runs, is not known. But today you know the way you’re playing, the ball is appearing like a football. So make the most of it and stay not out because it’s important.

“This holds for both Pant and Kishan, more so for Pant because when he came out to bat, he had hit a six and a four in that over. Had he rotated the strike, waited for the bad balls, the match could have been over sooner,” he added.
