Avesh Khan is praise by Gautam Gambhir. Gambhir also encouraged Avesh not to limit himself to the IPL and to strive for success at the highest level.
Gautam Gambhir, a former Indian cricketer, praised Avesh Khan’s performance against South Africa in the first T20I match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Despite scoring 211 runs while batting first, India lost by a large margin of seven wickets. The bowlers struggled to keep their economy rate under control and only managed three wickets.
Meanwhile, Avesh, 25, gave up 15 runs in his first over but recovered well, conceding only 20 runs in his next three overs. He did not take any wickets, but he was the only Indian bowler with an economy rate of less than nine. After this defeat, Indian bowlers faced a barrage of criticism for failing to defend a massive total. Gambhir, Avesh’s coach at Lucknow Super Giants, has praised the pacer for bowling difficult overs (2, 10, 14, 16). He also encouraged him to aim for success at the highest level rather than just the IPL.

In every match, I hope to see Avesh Khan improve: Gautam Gambhir
“This bowler is gifted; he has pace and a big heart to bowl the tough overs.” But I’d like to see him improve with each match. “He is a young bowler, and the IPL should not be his sole focus; the T20 World Cup is right around the corner,” Gambhir said on Star Sports.
Avesh has now played three Twenty20 Internationals for India, taking two wickets at an economy rate of more than eight runs per over. Clearly, he hasn’t made the best first impression. He batted first, ahead of uncapped seamers like Umran Malik and Arshdeep Singh, and needs to improve as the T20 World Cup approaches. In Australia, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Mohammed Shami are expect to form the pace trio, with fierce competition for backup seam options. Mohsin Khan, another LSG speedster, could be one of them.

If one player pushes the other, you can get a better performance from the other player, which is what you want. When every player is push, the other player comes and pushes you, and Mohsin Khan did that exceptionally well,” Gambhir continued.
