Former England captain, Nasser Hussain has said that the batting legend, Sachin Tendulkar’s magnificent technique forced him to discuss a lot about dismissing the Master Blaster during the team meetings. During a recent chat with Ian Bishop and Elma Smit in the latest episode of ICC podcast titled ‘Cricket Inside Out’, Hussain recalled the batsman with a good bowling technique.

During the podcast, Nasser Hussain said, “I like someone who plays with soft hands and lets the ball come to him, Kane Williamson for me has a very good technique in the current era, he plays the ball late with soft hands, as a result of T20 cricket, players in the modern gameplay with hard hands, Williamson can play all three formats and can adapt his game to each.”
