Dhruv Jurel credits MS Dhoni’s presence as motivation for his explosive innings in IPL 2023

In a recent IPL 2023 match, Rajasthan Royals’ young batting sensation Dhruv Jurel played an explosive knock of 34 runs off just 15 deliveries, which helped his team clinch a victory over Chennai Super Kings. Jurel’s performance was the result of his hard work and dedication, which he attributed to his practice regime and the motivation he received from the presence of MS Dhoni on the field.

Jurel expressed his admiration for the CSK captain, whom he has watched playing since childhood, and said, “I am fortunate enough to share the same field with Dhoni sir. It serves as motivation for me to know that he is standing behind me and watching me. I don’t feel any pressure. That is enough for me.”

The young batter has been putting in several hours of batting practice every day, which has given him the confidence to hit big shots, especially in the death overs. He shared, “This [finisher] is the spot that was given by the management, so I practice like that. I have practiced enough that I have to hit six for every ball. My mantra is bat; the rest will take care of itself.”

Jurel’s impressive performance in the match has helped Rajasthan Royals climb to the top of the IPL 2023 points table. With the tournament now in its crucial phase, the team will be looking to continue their winning streak, and Jurel’s explosive batting will be crucial to their success.

The young batter’s dedication and hard work have not gone unnoticed, and his team captain, Sanju Samson, praised him for his performance. Samson said, “Jurel is a very talented player, and we have seen glimpses of his potential in the previous matches. He is someone who is always looking to improve and is willing to put in the hard yards. I am confident that he will continue to do well for us.”

Jurel’s performance in the IPL 2023 season has put him in the spotlight, and he will be eager to make a mark and help his team lift the trophy. The young batter has shown that he has what it takes to succeed at the highest level, and with his determination and hard work, he is sure to achieve great success in the future
