"Badoni, I`d seen a few videos, when you only get to see the good shots, but the way he`s been batting is phenomenal. "Strong, 360-degree player, a great find for India and an asset for white-ball cricket," Rahul said at the post-match presentation here

Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul said Ayush Badoni is a strong 360-degree player and an asset for white-ball cricket in India, after the youngster displayed his skills with the bat in a six-wicket win over Chennai Super Kings in the IPL on Thursday. Badoni (19 not out in 9 balls), who scored a half-century in the previous game, joined forces with Evin Lewis (55 not out) towards the end to help the Super Giants chase down a mammoth 211-run target.
"Badoni, I`d seen a few videos, when you only get to see the good shots, but the way he`s been batting is phenomenal. "Strong, 360-degree player, a great find for India and an asset for white-ball cricket," Rahul said at the post-match presentation here. The skipper also lavished praise on another youngster -- leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi -- who did a brilliant job with the ball and was the most economical bowler for his side, registering figures of 2/24. "Bishnoi has a big heart, he`s a fighter for a little guy, shows the character he has to bounce back (from the last game) with a wet ball. Really happy for him, he wants to grow, wants to learn, and good to see that," Rahul added.
