He needs to be told to do his thing, pure and simple.
it's not possible to play strokes or hit boundaries in some situation, specially when the opposition bowlers are bowling very well at you like Vitori/JArvis on 3rd ODI, he needs to rotate the strike to release some pressure, find gaps, take singles, avoid dot balls, that's all.
