T20 cricket has rapidly become a power-hitters game and players from Australia, England and the West Indies are believed to be the best when it comes to crossing the boundary ropes, Hayden was asked if the batsmen from the subcontinent are the best. Were at a loss in the shorter formats, cited the example of Suryakumar being a perfect T20 batsman.
“The power game is still being explored in T20 cricket because there is a mix of it. And this tournament has shown really significantly… it doesn’t really matter about your power because you are looking for pace and speed. At the mercy of the game.
“So, a difficult balance is still being felt. I think players from the subcontinent, when you look at the tournament so far, people like Suryakumar Yadav, who with all the field qualifications in that mid to late stage. Playing beautifully in the field, with access shots, innovation and access, they become threats. So it’s not always about power. And as I said, I think as cricketers, we Everyone is trying to understand when there is power, when that foot goes down on the floor, when does it slow down and look to protect,” former Australia opener Hayden said.
He said that more than the power game of T20 cricket, innovation and innovation is the key to success, as evidenced by the early exit of teams like Australia, West Indies and South Africa.
“A lot of the matches have been very close matches. And the difficult balance between the pursuit of innovation versus conservation of wickets. I think there are still a lot of teams here in this tournament. Australia is a great one in that matter. Power but not being able to handle the new ball. And it allows itself to be vulnerable through the middle order,” Hayden said.
Speaking about Pakistan’s Babar Azam’s struggle at the top of the batting order, Hayden said that there are always “critical moments of ups and downs” in a cricketer’s career and expressed confidence that the captain’s moment of adversity gives him a strong The player will make
“We all know that in any career, you have important moments of ups and downs. And the challenges and humiliations along the way, they strengthen you and your greatness, that is how you achieve in the face of adversity. There is no doubt that Babar has been under some adversity that will make him not only an even bigger player.
“There are a lot of people who talk, but those of us who have been in the changing room with Babar realize that cricket, when it’s all said and done, is a very tough game. You can score hundreds of runs. Can’t keep up. And strike rate in the 50s and over 140. There are moments in times where there is a lull. And as we all know about the season, once there is peace, then There is often a storm. So watch out, the rest of the world, because I think you are going to see something special from Babur.”
