“So, I think Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma have the responsibility to shield Arshdeep Singh from this overdose of advice.”
Lee additionally gave Arshdeep just a few inputs to stay damage free.
“As someone who has played a few matches, I believe I am pretty qualified to pass him my thoughts. I have got a couple of little things that I believe can help Arshdeep with his action and take more wicket.
“My first recommendation to Arshdeep could be that folks typically say {that a} quick bowler ought to get to the gymnasium, and bulk. We hear they need him to bulk up, be sturdy. Now sturdy will be sturdy within the thoughts. I might say don’t over-gym,” he said.
“Lightweight, excessive repetitions, don’t be concerned concerning the seashore muscle tissues, if you wish to try this, it will not provide help to bowl quick,” Lee added.
Lee advised the youngster to avoid getting distracted by social media posts after Arshdeep was brutally trolled in social media after he dropped an easy catch off Pakistan batter Asif Ali during a Super 4 match of the last Asia Cup.
“Number 2 will probably be to construct a psychological filter to social media feedback as a result of we all know that the fellows and women enjoying are all on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
“If you’re going to play a sport and have a social media presence, you have to understand that you should turn off notifications. Don’t read what’s written. Have the brains and commonsense to separate that. If you don’t like it, get off social media and focus on your cricket,” he mentioned.
The former Australian cricketer additionally desires Arshdeep to play home cricket, a platform which can assist him positive tune his abilities.
“Keep working on your skills in domestic cricket, because when there is no big World Cups, and you’re not playing Test cricket, there aren’t any spectators. This is where you have to shine,” Lee mentioned.
“So this is what I believe what was the bread and butter of my career. Going back to first-class cricket, enjoy the quietness of the crowd and hone and build those skills. If you can look after that, the high-level will follow.”
Lee additionally suggested Arshdeep to focus on line and size and never go after velocity.
“We also often hear about fast bowlers trying to bowl too fast. Don’t be obsessed with bowling at 150 kph ball every time. On one hand, I would always say bowl as quick but you also ought to bowl that right line and length,” he mentioned.
“We talk about bowlers trying to bowl too fast, they lose their shape, rhythm and seam position. Make sure you work on optimising what is your best speed and work on your execution.
“It will come from follow and bowling line and size. Can you nice quick and have line and size? Of course, however do not attempt to bowl each ball at 160. That could be one of the simplest ways for Arshdeep.
“At the same time, don’t be bowling all slower balls every single time. Work on containing that speed but sometimes take 5 kph off and hit that line and length. Get that wicket. That is my advice to you.”
