Future of Indian Cricket

"I mean, of course, getting into this team after winning the World Cup, it wasn't easy for any opener. But if you see, we had a plan that we want to play a game, you know, that we have to show intent from the first ball. So that was my plan, I worked really hard on that. And if you're playing like this, you need special support from your coach and captain," Abhishek had said on receiving POTS.
He was a nightmare for bowlers throughout the campaign. He is now being touted as the future of Indian cricket.
