I just want to focus on my game and complete journey,\u201d said the teenage prodigy, who has now amassed 574 runs in this edition.<\/p>\n<p>On the day, he scored only 11 off the first 12 balls that he faced but then completed his 50 off just 23 balls.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was sitting while bowling, and the wicket looked good; I didn\u2019t want to rush and take my time.
