“Will definitely try to learn a lot more from him”: Jitesh Sharma

Jitesh Sharma has proven to be a dependable finisher in addition to being an aggressive hitter for Vidarbha and the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in his first IPL season last year.

Jitesh keeps watching recordings of the former Indian captain concluding games to learn how he handles pressure because Dhoni is one of the best finishers to ever play the game.

“In my off-time, I try and watch his videos to understand how he handles pressure, takes the game deep, or targets particular bowlers. By God’s grace if I get a chance to interact with him in person, will definitely try to learn a lot more from him.”
