On his day, I think he is the best batsman in the world, especially in white-ball cricket. He has got great game-plans in white-ball cricket and that is being converted to Test cricket as well. Unfortunately, in New Zealand, he got injured and couldn’t play the Test series but the kind of batting he did against South Africa in the last Test series we played in India, I think he was a revelation.
