‘You have to boost the scoring rate not only by hitting fours and sixes but also by the number of balls that you play for one and twos,’ Bevan told reporters at the SBNS.

‘The first thing is that you have to score a little bit quicker. I think in Twenty20 cricket you need a number of options,’ said Bevan. ‘You need to be flexible about how you are scoring runs. That’s Twenty20 cricket but it also depends on the condition what strokes you need to play,’ he added.

Thats the man we have been waiting for. Hope the players can learn quickly.
