However, Jaffer feels Kohli could have negotiated the delivery better by getting on the front foot and smothering the spin, rather than handing back and hoping that it doesn’t turn to beat his defense.
Speaking to ESPNCricinfo after the game, Wasim Jaffer explained why the issue is something that Virat Kohli needs to work on as soon as possible. He said:
There’s still time to achieve greatness: Wasim Jaffer on whether Shubman Gill will achieve greatness
Shubman Gill smashed an incredible double hundred in the first ODI and has made many Indian fans believe that he will achieve greatness in the format.
While Wasim Jaffer agreed that Gill has the talent to go all the way and become an all-time great, he also feels that the youngster will need to put in the hard yards over a long period of time. He stated:
Shubman Gill became the fifth Indian to score an ODI double hundred and also broke Ishan Kishan’s record by becoming the youngest to achieve this feat.
