He practised with steel rod and middler bat: coach Balaji.
The bond between them is strong. It travels back more than 13 years when Vijay Shankar was an under-15 player.
“He has shown us only 50% of his ability. He can do a lot more damage,” told S. Balaji, his personal coach, to The Hindu here on Wednesday.
The former Railways and Tamil Nadu batsman revealed, “Ahead of the series against Australia, we had specific training in preparation against the type of bowlers he would face.”
He added, “For instance, for Jason Behrendorff’s left arm over-the-wicket-angle, Vijay Shankar practised with a guard just outside his legstump, rather than a middle-and-leg one. His back foot moved towards middle stump and he was in a position to play that angle with a lot more freedom.”
