Unlike him, he doesn't bring cross - batted shots that add risk. Adoption of a high-risk approach After that, his intention is to rely on his strength-which is to hit straight and mid-wicket. “In T20, there is very little planning. You have to identify your strengths and make the most of it. Crick In this, you will obviously hit bad balls, but in Powerplay our intention is to maximize area restrictions. You have to keep looking for opportunities and when you get the opportunity, you have to It has to be utilized to the fullest, ”said Farhan.
