Bangalore: Virat Kohli sounded almost desolate when talking about his fight against Fidel Edwards in his 2011 debut test for the West Indies. This is not an ambitious young man.
Not glory, but anxiety and chaos.
He ended his nearly 20-minute conversation at a restaurant in Kingston and provided a simple and powerful message: “Lekin Mein Chhorunga Nahi (I won’t leave).”
He did not leave the fight, peaking between 2014 and 2019, with few modern cricketers climbing.
With the transformation of the cricket world into the batsman, running and centuries of flow, he pushed India’s heights and memorable victory in Test cricket.
But it is also a blueprint for some young batsmen who have been appointed Indian cricket in the post-Korli and Rohit Sharma era.
Here are some of these detailed views:
Shubman Gill:
Among the “Next Generation” stars, none of them is more important than India’s premier batsman and test captain Shubman Gill in the coming days.
Perhaps, it was a coincidence, but Gill found himself in the same space as Kohli in the midfield test record at 25.
The Punjabi performed 32 tests in the 1893 competition, with an average of 35.
But Jill will now head to England, with his record moderately – 88 runs in three tests, an average of 14.66.
Can the Punjabi turn their fate around the old depression to imitate his outstanding senior year?
Even without James Anderson and Stuart Broad, England has speeds that suit family conditions and some handy spinners.
Like Kohli, Jill will have to bring that heart disease discipline into his batting and develop trends even if his body is close to his body to cover up the sway.
Yashasvi Jaiswal
Jaiswal will certainly open the inning in England, and he has done the job in the West Indies, South Africa, Australia and India. However, on his first trip to the UK, the mission will be different.
Jaiswal has averaged his skills and patience in a large number of matches in Australia and the West Indies, with an average of more than 44 and 80.
But as a ball-loving batsman, Jaiswal will face a harsh challenge from a late England swing.
He will have to check the thriving drive and cuts, pay more attention to the leaves and choose the right attack occasion.
It’s not a technical change, it’s a psychological change, and he can tear a page off Kohli’s script.
After a 2014 struggle, Kohley learned how to eliminate the late swings of Anderson and Broad in 2018, and he ran 593 times from five games, an average of 59 games.
They can also mention Sanjay Bangar and Rahul Dravid’s clippings, negating the obvious swing against Andrew Caddick and Matthew Hoggard in 2002.
Dhruv Jurel
At 24, Jurel was a good backup option for Rishabh Pant, becoming the second ticket inspector batsman. He was impressed in his debut series against England, but had little impact on Australia.
Jurel has the necessary courage and skill level to become a long-term servant in testing cricket. He played his 50s in an unofficial test before last year’s Border Gawasca Trophy, showing off his abilities in both offense and defense.
He is also the kind of person that cricket coach Gautam Gambhir likes, and he never gets out of the battle in the middle.
However, maintaining it for longer will be his main challenge.
B Sai Sudharsan
Orthodoxy is his power. He’s very likely to make it to England’s tour, and his copybooks might come in handy in England, calming him for Jasval’s more aggressive Yang Town.
The 23-year-old Sudharsan prefers to play a role on the ground on both sides with straight bats, a quality that has achieved great opportunities in England.
It is still possible to use grainy lenses from West Indian superstars Viv Richards and Desmond Haynes on YouTube and drive English walkers like Ian Botham and John Snow on the ground, which may be his reference material.
He also has experience playing in Surrey, cricket county.
Sarfaraz Khan
The 27-year-old can plunder the attacks like last year’s attack on Bengaluru against New Zealand, but with a 150-year fight. But since then, the normal form and rib injury caused him to retreat. Mumbai men may also be asked to work.
There is no doubt that Sarfaraz’s skills. But if he could draw some clues from Kohli’s almost manic fitness chase to keep his skills sharp, Sarfaraz could recover his test fate.
Collective tasks
Now, there is no Kohli or Rohit Sharma who can guide them, defeat them, or swear or scold them. So, can boys survive the battle and grow up as men alone?
It will determine the brightness of itself and the future of Indian cricket.
