Virat Kohli always plays the situation: Nasser Hussain. “I have thought for a long time, he’s one of the best white ball batters there has ever been,” Hussain was quoted as saying.
The aggressive captaincy of Rohit Sharma, along with another magnificent century from Virat Kohli, propelled India to a 6-wicket victory over Bangladesh at the ICC ODI World Cup 2023. Ex-English cricket captain Nasser Hussain praised Rohit Sharma’s captaincy and batting on Star Sports’ “Follow the Blues” show, while also appreciating Virat Kohli’s century.
At an exclusive interview with Star Sports’ “Follow the Blues” show. StarCast Nasser Hussain offered his thoughts on Rohit Sharma’s hitting at World Cups, saying. “I have thought for a long time, he’s one of the best white ball batters there has ever been. ” His record is among the best, and he’s done it in World Cups. His record versus Bangladesh is outstanding, and his pull shot. Which we displayed at one point, was averaging 400 in the last couple of years.
He eventually made it out, but not before causing significant damage
The most essential thing I admire is that there is genuine determination; for a while, they played hesitant cricket in the T20 World Cup in Australia, losing to England in the semi-finals in Adelaide. This appears to be a different top three; the way Rohit, Shubman, and Virat are performing will put a lot of top-order bowlers under strain.”
“Just like when you lose a bowler, the way you have to think about bowlers are key moments in the games. ” Nasser Hussain said of Rohit Sharma’s captaincy at 2018 World Cup. Kuldeep bowling really effectively when he noticed Siraj coming back with those cross seam deliveries. So he went to Siraj, got the wicket, and then returned to Kuldeep, Jadeja, and Bumrah. He simply switched his bowlers, and as Dinesh Karthik pointed out on commentary, it wasn’t just the rotation; he was constantly rotating in order to obtain a wicket. So, same to his batting, he has the attacking option with his captaincy.”
Nasser Hussain commented on Virat Kohli’s century, saying, “Kohli always plays the situation, which is why he is brilliant in run chases.” He perceives the scenario in front of him; he won’t be far off the strike rate because he never takes up or chews up deliveries. If you wanted to go into another gear on a field like this, if he was chasing 350, Kohli would’ve gone into another gear, but he was just making sure India went over the line, as he typically does.”
