India National Cricket Team wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan has opened up about the big change in his batting mindset ahead of the second T20I against the Afghanistan National Cricket Team on Tuesday, September 15, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
The left-handed batter feels he is now playing with a calmer approach and is no longer putting extra pressure on himself to find boundaries. Kishan believes that this change has helped him trust his natural game more, and the result is in front of everyone.

Ishan Kishan reveals big change in his batting mindset
Ishan Kishan explained that his main focus now is on hand-eye coordination. He does not think too much about where he wants to hit the ball. His plan is simple: watch the ball until the last moment and identify his scoring options.
Kishan also admitted that things were very different earlier in his career. He used to think about scoring runs for the team, keeping his place and avoiding failure. The batter said that those thoughts often created fear and didn’t allow him to play his natural shots.
