Having last played for India in 2011, opener Abhinav Mukund tells Nihal Koshie of the Indian Express how he is working on his batting, what cricket he was playing in England recently, how his thinking has changed since his Test debut, and that, being 24, a long road lies ahead of him.
"When I made my Test debut, I wasn't as prepared as I thought I was. I was a young rash kid and just went out and batted and it worked because of whatever I had practiced previously. I played a rash shot at Lord's. I faced the challenge of an Indian batsman playing abroad in England. I am still 24 and it is always a matter of just one good Ranji Trophy season and you are back in the reckoning. You never know what might happen in a year."
