Former Australian pacer Jason Gillespie was very impressed with Ishant Sharma’s “thirst for knowledge” when he played English county under his coaching, despite being an established international cricketer. Ishant, who has so far picked 297 wickets from 97 Tests, played for Sussex in 2018 with Gillespie as the coach. “You know what really struck me about Ishant was his thirst for knowledge, his willingness to listen, ask questions, try new things, because sometimes you can get senior players, experienced players who will just go about and do their thing,” Gillespie said on a chat-show “Cow Corner Chronicles”.In fact, during the last first-class season, Ishant acknowledged that everyone spoke about his problems but it was Gillespie who provided solutions.”They know what they need to do and that’s fine. But Ishant was very much…he knew what he needed to do to bowl well. He also knew he wanted to get better,” remarked Gillespie.
