After the second T20I, leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal asked Rohit the mystery behind hitting such monstrous sixes and in the most recent scene of Chahal TV, he furnished the spinner with some significant guidance.
“At the point when I hit three back to back sixes, I attempted to go for six maximums. However, when I missed the fourth one, I chose I will take singles. You needn’t bother with a tremendous body and muscles to hit huge sixes. Indeed, even you (Chahal) can hit sixes. Power isn’t the main thing you have to hit sixes, you need timing too. The ball should hit the center of the bat and your head ought to stay composed. In this way, there are various things you need so as to hit a six,” he told Chahal in the video.
India will be peering toward their first T20 International arrangement succeed at home this season when they take on Bangladesh in the definitive third game on Sunday, with the expectation that their periphery players contribute fundamentally to a triumph. Without some senior players, including captain Virat Kohli, India’s essential target of the T20 arrangement was to distinguish the center of players for the T20 World Cup one year from now.
