Gautam Gambhir Backs Avesh Khan to Be an Excellent Bowler in All 3 Formats

Former India opener Gautam Gambhir said that young and talented pacer Avesh Khan can do well in all three formats of the game. He also added that the Indian Premier League (IPL) should not be his only goal. Notably, he played for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). However, Avesh failed to take a wicket in the first T20I against South Africa on Thursday (9 June) as Team India failed to defend a 212-run target. However, he gave away 35 runs in his four-over spell. Bet online by checking more new betting sites in India for the upcoming match here on our site.

During a discussion on Star Sports, Gambhir opened up on this. The LSG mentor stated: “This bowler has a lot of talent, he has pace, a big heart to bowl the difficult overs. But I will want to see him improve further in every match. He is a young bowler, only the IPL should not be his goal, the T20 World Cup is coming ahead. He has the attitude that a fast bowler should have and the most important thing is that he is still young and wants to learn. If he continues to work hard, he can become an excellent bowler, not only in T20s but in all three formats.”

However, Avesh Khan has picked up 100 wickets in the 27 first-class matches he has appeared so far as well. But he is currently being chosen for white-ball cricket now and he is not part of the Indian squad for the longer format as well. Meanwhile, the veteran stated that Avesh Khan’s ability to bowl in all three phases in the shorter format makes him different from others. Notably, Khan was his franchise’s highest wicket-taker with 18 wickets.

Gambhir concluded: “That ability comes with pace. If you have the pace, then you feel confident in all three phases. We have seen a lot of bowlers who do not have the pace that Avesh Khan, Prasidh Krishna, and Jasprit Bumrah have, then you have to give them the extra protection. It is a good thing if one player pushes the other, then you can bring out a better performance from the other player, which you want. Your squad is a good one when every player is pushed, the other player comes and pushes you and Mohsin Khan did that exceptionally well.” Here are the ten best betting apps you can download on your mobile devices and enjoy competitive odds and all the features you can expect from a mobile betting app.
