'Winning Game Makes You Feel Far Better Than Just Scoring A Hundred,' Says Pietersen On Rizvi's Knock
Pietersen, who worked as a mentor with the DC last year, revealed that he watched Rizvi closely last season and was impressed with the skillset the Indian batter possesses. He urged DC's management to keep backing Rizvi, and he will pay back with match-winning knocks.
"He played the situation beautifully, and I'm not surprised. I spent a lot of time with Sameer last season, watched him closely. He scored a hundred in a warm-up game but, unfortunately, couldn't find a place in the first half of the tournament. However, when he got his opportunity later in the season, he showed what he was about, and everybody looked up and said, This kid is a proper player, and we probably need to invest in him for a period of time," Pietersen told Jio Hotstar.
