This stylish Andhra batsman was a favourite of former India coach Greg Chappell and was counted among those who can take charge of India's batting once the big guns hang up their boots. He turned up for India in 16 matches before losing his place. IPL can be a platform for him to come back to limelight.

Hi Venu,

I think u can't hit the ball out of the rope many times.Try to play ground shots which gives four runs to your team.I think ur the one who can play ground shots very well.During the fielding also u need to improve when u throuw the ball.Please do work around these 2 issues u'l be the most powerful indian player in Deccan Chargers Team.

Hi! Venu the draw back for u his. Your takeing room b4r bowler bowls. see man stand in a position on the crease . u can't hit six by taking room by ur self to leg side. see how did u hit the ball against KKR in 1st session(71) r chkout chk out d video once. ur trying very best to send bowl over to stands, u can man stand in a position and hit the bowl and show up. Plz man don't show up again flop show ,ur pillar,coz middle order batsmen always come to crease in curial time. ALL THE BEST! i hope i see u back in AP with IPL trophy on may 26th:)

Andhra curry is still the best. I bet Venu will be charged up after his show agaist the Mubai indians. Venu strike hard, when given a chance. Make use of all the oppertunities you get...and show us what U R capable off. I am counting on you

Venu...good to see u getting into the groove...couple of cheeky shots down the thirdman can be useful...Its all about the timing...try getting underneath the ball & slash hard for few sixes.

YOU SEEM TO HAVE TRANSFORMED YOURSELF IN THE LAST IPL. THERE IS A ZEAL IN YOUR GAME. JUST ONE MORE SUGGESTION, LONG HAIR AND STUBBLE... DONT SUIT YOU. LOOK AS SMART AS YOUR GAME.

thatguyyouknow

good player, but don let that pride get to ya.....try and become a little simpler on the field...and when someone screams your name on the field, the least you can do is turn round and smile venu !
