WILL JACKS is using Virat Kohli as a role model to batten down the No.3 spot and fulfil his World Cup "dream".
The England star returned from the IPL recently buzzing from his first taste of white ball's most spectacular, big-money showpiece.
He made the most of his opportunity to learn from Indian hero Kohli and feels the experience has already made him a better player.
Jacks, 25, also hopes it has put him on the road to proving he should be one of the first names on the team sheet in the Caribbean.
He smashed the fifth fastest IPL century off 41 balls in a successful run-chase partnership of 201 with Kohli for Royal Challengers Bangalore during his spell there.
