His recent performances have showcased his skill and potential, and Rohit Sharma praised Indian quick for the success after IND vs NZ ODI series win. “He has done really well, he understands what the team is expecting from him. To come and take the new ball, swing the ball, get early wickets. In the middle overs too, he’s got so much skill. The more he plays, the better he gets,” said Rohit.
Months ago he used to get trolled, but as always the comeback is better than the setback. He stood up and took the responsibility and is now a No.1 Ranked ODI bowler.
