IPL 2026: Mukul Is A Real Athlete; He Runs Between The Wickets Like Kohli, Opines Langer
Lucknow Super Giants: Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) head coach Justin Langer has hailed young batting sensation Mukul Choudhary, calling him a ‘great athlete’ with a ‘sharp brain,’ comparing his game sense and elite running between the wickets to that of the legendary Virat Kohli.
Choudhary’s match-winning unbeaten 54 off 27 balls, laced with seven sixes and two fours, against KKR has propelled him into the spotlight. “What I love the most is that he is a real athlete, and the way he runs between the wickets is elite. It is like how Virat runs between the wickets, but the other thing about him is his game sense.
“We have had some practice games, and the way he talks about the game is like he has been playing 300 matches. So, he has got some power, he is a great athlete, and he has got a sharp brain. He has a very curious mind and wants to get better. He went away and worked on the short ball. We have been doing drills with him every day, and then it came out in practice and in the game,” said Langer on JioHotstar.
