Lucknow Super Giants fast bowler Shardul Thakur played a key role in winning a win by 12 runs against Mumbai Indians. While defending this goal, he had put the 19th over which is considered the most difficult over.
However, he put it very easily and went away with accurate yorker, due to which no batsman could kill him for a boundary. To win 12 balls, 29 runs were needed and he spent only 7 runs in his over.
In this match, Shardul Thakur bowled very well and his spell is also getting much praise. Although he himself told that there was a lot of pressure on him, but he enjoys doing difficult work in this way.
Talking after the match, he said, “When you are bowling before the last or in the last over, there is always pressure, Avesh also did a great job. But at the end of the day you have bought the franchise for that work.
At the same time, he also praised Digvesh Rathi, who won the Man of Match Award, he said, “He is a great bowler and is also a characteristic player. We need such players in the team – who come and perform well for the team and he has been surprised to some extent in the IPL.” While stating the difference between black and red soil, he said, “I think the boom on the red soil is the same and the ball comes well, but when there is no dew on the black soil, you need more skills as a batsman.”
This time, Shardul Thakur was disappointed in the IPL auction as he was not bought by any franchise but he got a place as a replacement in Lucknow Super Giants. He took advantage of this opportunity very well and is the highest wicket for Lucknow by taking 7 wickets in 4 matches.
