"The plan is to keep him in the mix as much as we can," said skipper Rohit Sharma after India's 3-0 win in Kolkata Eden Garden. "At the same time, we need to give him a role of where to bat. He doesn't usually bat in this role; for his franchise(KKR) he bats up the order & it's going to be tough for him to bat up the order so we've given him a role to bat at probably 5, 6,7 in the lower-middle order.
"Today he looked quite composed for whatever time he was in there. He was clear in his mindset & had a good approach for whatever he wanted to do. You saw his bowling skills. He looks a very bright prospect for us. Clearly he's got the skills. In terms of his bowling skills as well he can get the job done for us. It's about giving him that confidence, making him play as much as he can & seeing if he can deliver for us. It's still early days. He's played only 3 games & has not much of an opportunity to make an impact. But going forward we'll definitely keep an eye on him.
