“India always have competition, there are a lot of brilliant players in the country and you have to keep scoring consistently to be on the top. It’s like a family sometimes you don’t score runs and you sit out. T20 is something different and ODIs you have a lot of time to assess the situation and play accordingly. I will take more time here, absolutely different in this format. It’s always lovely to work under Rahul Sir, we had him as a coach for U-19 team and A team. so whatever experience he shares we are mentally prepared for it,” said Prithvi Shaw before the start of the SL vs IND 1st ODI.
