Youngsters Should Aim To Be Better Than Rohit & Kohli Instead Of Aspiring To Be Like Them: Kirmani
Cricket World Cup: Former India wicketkeeper-batter Syed Kirmani believes that young up-and-coming cricketers should aim to be better than the batting stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, rather than aspiring to be like them.
Ahead of last year’s England tour, both Kohli and Rohit retired from Test cricket. They had already stopped playing T20Is following their 2024 World Cup victory. This left them with ODIs, a format in which they have excelled over the years.
"They have set a great example for young players to follow. With impressive records behind them, they serve as a source of inspiration and motivation for aspiring cricketers while they are active. Young players should study how capable they are and the records they have set. Instead of merely wishing to be like players A, B, C, or D, they should aim to be better than them. That should be their primary focus and guiding principle,” Kirmani told IANS.
