‘You just have to wait’: Mike Hesson

”It’s really interesting because I did a couple of hours of press conferences yesterday, and never ever talked about where Virat will bat or where Aaron Finch is going to bat. And apparently,  y are both batting toger. I think, reality, from a coaching point of view, is that we won’t actually be telling anybody until our first team is anunced on exactly what our lineup is. Because that’s our strategy. We want to keep it up on our sleeves, in terms of where will we use players,” said Hesson in a video uploaded by Royal Challengers Bangalore's social media handle.

“ doubts, we will be asked many many questions about who’s going to bat where, but you just have to wait. We are aware of what we want but we want to keep our opposition guessing as well.” he added.
