In New Zealand’s emphatic title win, Jamieson played a major role in his team’s first essay with 21 valuable runs as well as match figures of 7 for 61 in 44 overs.
“Kyle Jamieson is a fantastic all-rounder. He is going to be one of the leading all-rounders in world cricket,” Tendulkar said on his YouTube channel.
“When I saw him in New Zealand last year, he impressed me,” the maestro said.

He then went on to elaborate why playing Jamieson in England conditions made him even more lethal.
“If you look at his bowling, he is very tall and more than swing, he likes to bowl fast. He is a different bowler than other bowlers. Tim Southee, Trent Bolt and Neil Wagner.
Tendulkar said, “Jamesson hits the deck hard and everything he does is outside the seam. He made a lot of variations to twist his wrists and bowl big inswingers. A fair bit of variation in his bowling.” And what I liked was the consistency.”
Tendulkar also liked how Jamieson used his height to play big shots.
“His partnership with Williamson was crucial for New Zealand. He chose to attack with the first ball and used his height beautifully. A tall batsman, who can go on the front-foot and make a big statement.
“Such unstable bowlers and they have to pull their length back because the batsman is using his height. When the ball has to chin high, the length has to be short and this gives the batsman a chance to play horizontal bat shots And that’s what Jamieson is absolutely right about. Anything from the length, he used his height beautifully, stood tall and played most of that.”
On the Indian front, Tendulkar felt that Virat Kohli And on the sixth day, Cheteshwar Pujara’s out in the first hour became the decider.
“On the last day, it was very important to bat at least till the break of the first drink. Then we had the firepower to accelerate and play shots. The rest of the players too when they know we are in a safe zone and New Zealand are not chasing If you can, then the mind changes. So a partnership was important in the beginning,” Tendulkar said.
