After a challenging innings in the 2022 Sheffield Shield final, Ash Chandrasinghe has shown significant progress in his batting, leading to his inclusion in Victoria's squad for the upcoming Sheffield Shield opener against Tasmania.
A couple of months ago in Darwin, Ash Chandrasinghe made 47 in a Twenty20 game against Pakistan A. Not much notable about that kind of score, other than the fact he got there in 42 balls with a couple of sixes.
It was the kind of innings that rattled round the social media sphere, target of equal parts admiration and derision. The latter was offered up at volume by partisan spectators at the WACA Ground. And while teammates and coach Chris Rogers were generous in praise, the experience took some time getting over.
“So many young guys would get into that position and almost feel a little bit embarrassed and just throw their wicket away. The fact that he fought all the way through and didn’t get out ... that determination and to never quit is something in-built. It’s an extraordinary effort, and I’m so proud of him.”In technical terms, Chandrasinghe has worked assiduously on his head position and a related trigger movement, the better to balance him for aggressive shots as well as defensive deflections.
Rogers has expressed a sense of optimism at Chandrasinghe’s expansion in stroke-making, while also knowing it will take time for him to get the best out of a locker with more shots.
