Australia’s star batsman Marnus Labuschagne is currently at the top of the Test format. He excelled with his bat not only on home pitches but also abroad. Team India’s batsman Virat Kohli played a key role in Labushen reaching the top. Do any of you know this? Yes.. because of Kohli Labushen overcame his biggest weakness and became number one. This player is a danger lurking in front of Team India in the Border Gavaskar Trophy which will start from February 9.
Labushane was a key member of the Australian team in this tournament. Every match.. his wicket in every innings is very important for Team India. This batsman has not left any team for the last one year. With his unique batting style, he threatened the opposition bowlers. It is very difficult for the bowlers to find fault in his batting technique. It was because of Virat Kohli that Labushen corrected the biggest flaw in his batting. His coach himself revealed this. Australian batsman Marnus Labuschagne had a week in the leg-side batting before his international debut. Every time he plays the leg side shots, he gets back lbw.
‘I don’t like being out at all. I want to do something for that. I also stopped playing leg side because of this fear. Coach Neil DiCosta did a special training exercise to get rid of that fear. He named it ‘Virat Kohli’. He taught Virat Kohli how to play the ball from outside off to on side. But there was still the fear of being LBW. I used to say that I cannot play the shot that Virat Kohli hit and I will get out. But if you don’t play now, you will never be able to prove your ability again,’ said the coach. And Marnus believed in his technique and worked hard to learn every shot. Now he continues to be at the top in Tests without a minus.
