New Zealand got important advice before IND vs NZ 4th T20 match

Visakhapatnam, Digital Desk. The consistently aggressive batting of Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav has made it difficult for New Zealand's bowlers to 'maintain their composure' in the ongoing five-match T20 series. In such a situation, the bowling coach of the visiting team, Jacob Oram, has advised the players to accept this challenge and find ways to deal with it.

Indian top-order batsmen Abhishek, Ishan and Suryakumar have given New Zealand's bowling attack a tough test, scoring consistently at a strike rate of around 250 in the last three T20 matches. Due to this, India is leading 3-0 in this five-match series.

Oram told the media a day before the fourth T20 match in Visakhapatnam,

There has been a bit of chaos on the field, with the ball going out of bounds every time. In such a situation, it is important to maintain patience and control and implement your plans. But I would again say that this is part of the learning process. The ease with which Indian batsmen are playing big shots. Jayasuriya of Sri Lanka had done something similar in his time. Bowlers often have to adapt to this and this is the challenge for us at the moment.
