He said, “I asked myself many questions and made a routine. Focused on your training and skills. Playing continuously in domestic cricket, I realized how important fitness is to me. Especially at the beginning of the year, when I was going through mentally difficult times. But, now I am very happy that I took myself out of that difficult time and handled the situation well. The most important thing was that I had faith in myself. “
