Former Indian captain Kris Srikkanth hailed Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma for guiding the youngsters in the side after the third and final ODI against South Africa in Vizag. Playing only the ODI format, the duo were in the thick of things throughout the three-match series with bat and on the field.Rohit and Kohli were also the non-strikers throughout Yashasvi Jaiswal's maiden ODI century in the series decider against the Proteas, something Srikkanth spoke in detail about."Hats off to these two, look at the way they guide youngsters. Jaiswal was struggling big time but look at the way Rohit Sharma guided him. First 60 balls, just 36 runs for Jaiswal and he was struggling with his bat, hands and feet. But Rohit kept telling him to wait and not rush. It was when Rohit himself was going great guns," he said on his YouTube channel (5:32).Srikkanth added:"Once he got out, Virat Kohli came in and guided Jaiswal to the century. That's the greatness of Virat and Rohit. Last match, Virat guided Ruturaj, he scored a century. In this match, he guided Yashasvi Jaiswal to a century in just his fourth ODI. I give a lot of credit to Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma for how they guide youngsters. Even bowling, Rohit guided the likes of Kuldeep beautifully when it came to reviews.""Yashasvi Jaiswal had the best place to play, batting in the middle of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. What else do you need? When you are struggling, its best to be on either side of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. What else does someone need in life?"While Jaiswal finished on 116* off 121 deliveries, Rohit and Kohli added crucial half-centuries as India chased down 271 comfortably with nine wickets in hand."There was a life lesson in Jaiswal's knock today" - Kris SrikkanthKris Srikkanth praised Yashasvi Jaiswal for biding his time amid a scratchy start to score his maiden ODI century in the series finale against South Africa. Coming off two failures, the southpaw reached his half-century off only 75 deliveries.However, he raced to his second fifty off a mere 36 balls, helping India take control of the run-chase."There was a life lesson in Jaiswal's knock today. Everyone will go through a bad time where runs won't come and the feet won't move. That's when Rohit Sharma went to him and told him not to worry and just hang in there by biting your teeth. It was a lesson for Jaiswal or any youngster that during challenging times, it's important to bite your teeth and just hang in there. Then your time will come like it did for Jaiswal once he reached 40. He raced to the century then," said Srikkanth (via the aforementioned source).Jaiswal also became only the sixth Indian batter to score a century in all three formats with his maiden ODI ton. His heroics helped India win the ODI series 2-1.
