“I think what is great with Shubman is he knows his game. He knows his innings, how to start, how to accelerate and how to finish it,” the star spinner added. Rashid believes a team shouldn’t be “too affected by the small imperfections”. After the massive 89-run win over Chennai Super Kings on Thursday, Rashid said while it’s difficult to have an absolute perfect team, every player at the Gujarat Titans is now stepping up and taking responsibility.
“Every team has those little areas to improve on and every team has some areas in which they are very strong. You can’t be a complete 100% perfect team, doesn’t matter how many good players you have. Throughout the tournament there has been lots of discussion about our middle order and things like that but I feel everyone is stepping up,” he said. “Everyone is taking the responsibility and that is what’s important. If you keep thinking about those 10% or 15% imperfect areas, it’s going to affect the rest of the 75 or 80%.”
