Former India captain Anjum Chopra discussed Harmanpreet Kaur’s batting approach and suggested that the skipper should give herself a little extra time at the crease, instead of trying to go out there and hit the ball around the park.
Speaking to JioHotstar, Chopra discussed Kaur’s approach with the bat, saying that the skipper should give herself some more time at the crease. The veteran added that the 36-year-old should think and analyse the situation before hitting shots to carry a long innings.
“Harmanpreet should give herself a little extra time at the crease. Every time she walks in, she seems to think like a 20 or 25-year-old, who can just go out there and hit the ball around the park. Yes, she can, but she doesn’t need to. The situation often doesn’t demand that kind of aggression.
“Avoiding rash shots and keeping her focus intact will be key. It’s easier said than done because when you’re out in the middle, everything, the pressure, scoreboard, situation, can get to you. But that’s where the difference lies between a good player and a match-winner,” Chopra said.
