I don’t want to look ahead: Mukund
Abhinav Mukund, who was included in the India’s playing XI for the Galle Test against Sri Lanka in the absence of both regular openers, believes one has to capitalise whenever he gets a chance to perform in the middle.
Mukund didn’t have the best day on his comeback to Test cricket as he was dismissed for just 12 in India’s first innings but he rallied with a brilliant run-out and a terrific catch at silly point on Thursday and then scored a career-best 81 on Friday. However, he missed on his maiden ton as he was dismissed lbw off the last ball of the day. “I had the opportunity to do something in this Test.
I don’t want to think ahead to the next Test. Being the first-choice opener or second-choice opener, it doesn’t make a difference. When you get a chance in the middle, I want to capitalise on it. That’s what I thought,” Mukund said in the press conference after the day’s play.
