Overall, he is a talented batsman and most of all, he has a strong mindset.

Also, Kochhar claimed that Dhul is somewhat similar to Dhoni when it comes to captaincy. Kochhar told DNA that he is very calm on the field like Dhoni. He strategizes according to the situation. Most importantly, Yash is not aggressive and he will mature more in times to come. Even when setting up the field, he is very relaxed and places the fielders as per the need of the bowler. Yash is mentally strong, has a calm nature and does not talk much. If all goes well, Yash will be the next Dhoni in terms of captaincy.
