Speaking on the Star Sports Cricket Connected Show, Gambhir shed light on how the new rules have helped the current crop of batsmen.

Gambhir made his Indian cricket team debut against Bangladesh in April 2003 and was a key member of India’s World Cup-winning squads at the 2007 World T20 and the 2011 World Cup.

The southpaw played a total of 58 ODIs, 147 Test matches and 37 T20Is for India, and put up quite a few notable partnerships with both Tendulkar and Virat Kohli.

The former opener drew curtains on his playing career in early December 2018, and since then, Gambhir has voiced out his opinions on the world of cricket as a commentator and expert.

The two-time IPL winning captain further elucidated about how it has been a lot easier for Virat Kohli and the new generation to bat as a result of the developments to the rules rung in by the International Cricket Council.

Virat Kohli is one of the world’s most consistent batsmen at the current moment, and is perched at the top of the ICC batsmen’s ODI rankings. From 248 matches, Virat Kohli has made 11867 runs, including 43 centuries and is certainly on his way to break numerous records in the foreseeable future.
