This T20 World Cup, instinctive batting has been the key to success

Hindustan Times  

KOLKATA This T20 World Cup hasn’t gone easy on the batters. Take Rohit’s 41-ball 92 against Australia for example, a captivating display of instinctive batting in a crunch match at a ground where the cross-wind gives a unique advantage to batters and bowlers. Thankfully, though completely inadvertently, the pitches in this T20 World Cup have allowed bowlers to pose questions again, prompting batters to dig deeper and follow their instinct, explore areas or shots they normally shelve in franchise leagues, and learn more about their game in the process. And this T20 World Cup has offered exactly that, giving the bowlers a worthy shot every match while asking the batters to learn, adapt and improvise.
