For his approach at the top of the order, saying SRH should stick to opening with him. “He should continue batting at the top of the order even though.
(Harry) Brook has scored a hundred. IPL is such a tournament that you pay heavily if you make mistakes at the top of the order. A lot of planning goes.
Into finalising these things even before the tournament starts,” said Khan on JioCinema.”They went back to the pair of Mayank Agarwal and Sharma.
To open the innings today and it paid off. Brook’s promotion to the top earlier had led to a lot of confusion in their ranks. Even today, I reiterate that SRH.
Are a very good side on paper, but they are not producing the best results and that has to do with something unrelated to cricket. How you approach games.
The decisions you make are a big part of IPL,” added Khan. Former New Zealand cricketer Scott Stryris too agreed with Khan on SRH’s decision to
Open with Sharma. “Sharma is back to the place where he should be and Harry Brook is back to a place he’s more comfortable with. They at least rectified.

The mistake they made.” On DC’s batting, Khan said: “We got to see a six that landed just on the boundary rope but beyond that there were quite a few long hits.
They opened today with Phil Salt and I have been saying this from before the tournament started that it would not have been a bad option for them to open with Mitchell March.”
