Nine wickets at an average of 10.11 and other bowlers also took 10 wickets each. But I would like to add that they were hunting together. His statistics are not good but he played an important role in getting him wickets. It’s not an individual game and that’s what I like about this Indian attack.”
He further said, “This (yorker) is definitely his weapon in all the formats he plays. While playing against him, I always felt that yorker was his main weapon. He takes a lot of wickets with this even in Tests.
