IND U19 vs AUS U19 LIVE: “Australian bowling attack is a normal one and we focus on building partnerships as soon as we lose quick wickets. Our focus then shifts towards building partnerships so that we could score more in death overs,” said Yash Dhull while replying to a query from ANI in the press conference.
When ANI asked how important is the role of VVS Laxman for the under-19 boys, Yash Dhull said, “Laxman sir shares his experience with us which is very crucial for upcoming games and he has a very important role in our camp.”
Last month, on the gameday against Ireland, the BCCI had informed that four India players tested positive for COVID-19, including skipper Yash Dhull and vice-captain SK Rasheed.
But skipper Dhull said the phase wasn’t tough for the side as former batter Laxman used to call the players to know about the whereabouts.
“It wasn’t difficult as VVS Laxman sir used to call us to guide us. So it wasn’t tough and we were focussed towards the Bangladesh match. We will play with a positive mind and set the target according to the wicket tomorrow,” Dhull said.
