Delhi: When the team of Delhi Capitals was batting against Lucknow Super Giants, the team’s score was in trouble after half the team for 65 runs. The team had to achieve a big target of 210 runs. In such a situation, Ashutosh Sharma scored a brilliant 66 runs off 31 balls and won his team. Indian railway team coach and former Rajasthan wicketkeeper Nikhil Doru has made a big disclosure about Ashutosh Sharma.
‘The selectors were against Ashutosh’
Ashutosh had overcome the crisis by scoring a brilliant century on his Ranji Trophy debut. Nikhil Doru told in a conversation with the Times of India that the selectors were completely against the selection of Ashutosh in the railway team. He said, ‘Ashutosh does not know how to bat. He can only hit big shots. I continued to pressurize him for his selection and consider him necessary to give him his ability to emerge as a game changer. “
Doru said that initially he was not selected in three-four matches, but finally he was given a chance against Gujarat. According to Nikhil, the selectors thought that if Ashutosh’s performance was poor, he would be dropped from the team.
Significantly, today, Ashutosh has got a new identity due to the same big shots and now he is being considered an important part of the team of Delhi Capitals.
