Young Mumbai Indians wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan has said that he occasionally marvels the cricketing acumen of previous Chennai Tremendous Kings (CSK) skipper, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, introducing that he “generally attempts to go through” the veteran player’s brain to strengthen his have capabilities.
The 23-year-outdated Ishan was purchased back again by Mumbai Indians for a whopping INR 15.25 crore for the duration of the Mega Auction, generating him the most highly-priced player of IPL 2022.
“Extra than maintaining, I hold striving to determine out how his brain performs. You won’t imagine… in one particular of the IPL video games, it seriously pressured me out the most. I was taking part in very well and hitting the bowlers. But then Dhoni bhai walked up to the bowler and reported something. I couldn’t listen to what but he reported some thing to Imran (Tahir) bhai,” Ishan, narrating an incident, explained.
“And in my mind, I am wanting to know what Dhoni bhai has explained to him. I you should not know what transpired but there was a 50 percent-volley ball, which I drove but acquired out caught at limited-third male. To day, I have not figured out how a batter attempting to generate a spinner receives caught at third person,” Ishan explained on the ‘Breakfast with Champions’ display.
The remaining-hand batter also recalled a valuable wicket-keeping tip supplied by Dhoni.
“So from what we have observed about preserving, our palms are normally straight but when there is an edge, it moves to the proper. But he (Dhoni) taught me that the hand movement should really be only this a great deal. That should really be all the motion. Not just the wrist. It really should go like this (like a semi-pendulum). Once this will become a practice, you’ll be in a position to capture even the thick edges,” additional Ishan.
