Jitesh Sharma discusses his time with the Punjab Kings in the IPL 2022. “What I’ve learned throughout my time with the Punjab Kings is that the players here are firm believers in their potential and expertise,” Jitesh stated.
Jitesh Sharma, who played his first IPL season for Punjab Kings last year, has spoken up about the great environment in the franchise’s dressing room and how the organization supports the players to get the most out of them. During the 2022 season, the 29-year-old wicketkeeper-batter shared a dressing room alongside Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank Agarwal, Jonny Bairstow, and Liam Livingstone.
“Whatever I’ve learned so far about the Punjab Kings is that the guys here are firm believers in their own skills and expertise. When a newcomer joins the team, he is always unsure whether he will be able to live up to the expectations. But after seeing Shikhar Bhai, Mayank, Bairstow, Bhanuka, Livingstone, and others, I understood they had amazing self-belief. That really helped me express myself and develop some self-belief “He revealed this to Sportskeeda.

Who believes he is ready to represent India in T20Is. “During IPL 2022, I had several contacts, but one with Jonny Bairstow would always stand out. He once approached me and informed me that I was capable of representing my nation at the top level in the T20 format. He urged me to concentrate on my performances and not to be concerned about selection “Jitesh stated.
Jitesh spoke on his job as a finisher, saying that it requires mental toughness in a player and that he wanted to take the game deep. “As a finisher, you must be realistic and understand that you will be in circumstances where you will win some games but lose others. You can’t become a hero in every game; all you can do is strive to bring every game as near to your team’s triumph as possible. So I’ve always believed in going all the way and staying to the end to assist my team cross the finish line “He stated.
