On March 7, Sitanshu Kotak told reporters that senior players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are guiding the young players to handle the big match pressure.
Kotak said, “Senior players like Rohit, Virat, Jadeja, and Shami always talk to younger players. In team meetings, everyone shares their thoughts. That is priceless.”
Kotak added, “They share 15-20 years of experience with players who have just two years. Some things come with time, but learning from experienced players is valuable. The Indian team is great at this, creating a strong environment. It also helps the support staff, as they handle a lot on their own.”
