I wanted him to see me playing. I remember that time he called me to his office and said- Tell me honestly, do you want to become Mithali Raj of the Australian cricket team? I said- Why Mithali Raj? Bolton further said- Because you want to touch a strike rate of 50. If you make 100 or 100 runs in 150 balls, but still the team loses, then it does not mean anything. After this I said- what a thing, Fitzpatrick sees my game like this. This game was not good for me, because if he sees me playing like this, then my cricket career will be cut short. Let us tell you that this conversation of Fitzpatrick had a great impact on Bolton, which was also seen in his next few innings. In his next match, Bolton scored 170 runs in 156 balls, which included 24 boundaries.
