In T20s You Always Have To Be Ahead Of The Game Mentally: Ruturaj Gaikwad
In T20s: India have taken an unassailable 3-1 lead in the ongoing five-match T20I series against Australia, and opener Ruturaj Gaikwad believes one has to be mentally ahead when matches happen in the shortest format while adding that he has learnt a lot about fulfilling the needs of the team from the legendary M.S. Dhoni.
“In T20s you always have to be ahead of the game mentally and I give a lot of importance to that. The night before, I visualise what kind of situation may occur during the game, and how the pitch may behave. Mahi bhai always insists that we don’t rush our thoughts, because there’s enough time for an opener even in a T20 match.”
“I learnt a lot about this format playing for CSK. Mahi bhai (MS Dhoni) is always keen on reading situations and understanding the game. He sends a message that you have to look for the team score and what the team requires irrespective of the situation of the game,” said Gaikwad on JioCinema after the match ended.
