former cricketer Shikhar Dhawan share his thoughts on Shubman Gill’s elegant batting, Rohit Sharma’s mentorship of young openers, and Harshit Rana getting an opportunity in Jasprit Bumrah’s absence in a special series, “The Shikhar Dhawan Experience”, on Star Sports and JioHotstar.
Shikhar Dhawan on Shubman Gill and Rohit’s opening partner “I simply love Shubman Gill’s batting, it’s very classy and there’s elegance in his batting. And there’s consistency, it feels good to see that there’s so much professionalism. There are young boys, they know how to play their role well and are making back -to -back runs. He’s got a great present and future for India. Rohit enjoys playing with youngsters and he must be sharing his many years of experience with them. I’m sure he must be patting them (on the back) and telling them how to play in given situations. These small communications are very important.”
Shikhar Dhawan on Harshit Rana getting an opportunity in Jasprit Bumrah’s absence “Jasprit Bumrah is a very big name, a very big bowler. He is such a consistent performer there. Of course, his presence was missed a lot. Whether anybody says anything or not, I feel 100 % that his presence is very important. It is a very good platform for Harshit Rana. He has a passion and aggression, and I like the way he picks up wickets. Great opportunity for him, there’s Rohit’s guidance, and Virat as well. He should learn from them and hold on to this opportunity.”
