Inzamam-ul-Haq impressed with India producing world-class talent
Former Pakistan skipper Inzamam-ul-Haq is impressed with how India keep producing world class talent one after the other.
In the 1st ODI against England, two debutants – Krunal Pandya and Prasidh Krishna – were on top of their game, helping India pull off a come from behind win to go 1-up in the 3-match series.
“I think India have set up some sort of machine to manufacture new players. There were two debutants even today. This gives a clear signal to the senior cricketers that you have to perform well to stay in the side,” Inzamam said on his YouTube channel.
“I’m noticing since the Australia series that in every match or format, a youngster turns up and gives outstanding performance. Seniors have their role but when juniors perform like this then it speaks a lot about the side. India’s performance has been this good in the last six months because of their youngsters,” added Inzamam further.
The 51-year-old opined that such performances from the youngsters push even the senior players to up their game.
“When the youngsters of the team perform so well then it leaves no choice for the seniors to up their level. The kind of cricket, the quality if cricket that India are playing nowadays, they are making it look easy against an opposition like England. It was looking like it’ll be tough for India after England’s opening partnership but later on Indian bowlers didn’t allow them the space to breathe,” Inzamam concluded.
