T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8: Phil Salt has paid his respect to assistant coach Keiron Pollard and hailed his impact over the England side. Here are the details. Read below.

T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8: England opener Phil Salt has hailed the impact of assistant coach Keiron Pollard over the side, as England have been on a good run in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. The 27-year old has himself been on a splendid run ever since he played his first match of the Indian Premier League 2024 for Kolkata Knight Riders, as he has scored 640 runs in 18 innings across the IPL 2024, Pakistan Vs England T20I series, and T20 World Cup 2024, and stated that the player 'has learned a lot' from the West Indies legend.

"Pollard's brought a lot to the group but I'd say that the most valuable thing I've taken so far is constructing that run chase. We've spoken a lot about taking eights from one side to take twelves from the other and that's 200. It sounds so simple to say it but putting that into action there wasn't really. After a point in time out there, I knew I slowed down. I knew I hadn't got much strike but I knew that If I just get through that period, then we're going to be in a good position and I can have a good dip, a good calculated risk at the seamers," said Phil Salt, as reported by ICC.

 

Here's What Phil Salt Said During Post-Match Presentation Ceremony

"Yeah, I will take that. We are not looking too far ahead. Just happy to contribute to the team's win. It was a little bit tougher with the spin in the middle overs. It was about constructing the chase. If I didn't take on the spinners, I had to take on the pacers in the later stage. There are a lot of factors. You have to face many balls and hitting those boundaries. It was a pretty good wicket to bat on," said Phil Salt, who was awarded 'Man Of The Match' for his unbeaten 87 against West Indies.

."Jonny's innings was crucial. Once Jos got out, I had to bat through. Jonny took calculated risks in the middle and couldn't be more happier for him as a teammate," he added.
