Akash Madhwal hogged the limelight with his sensational bowling as Mumbai Indians entered the Qualifier 2 of IPL 2023 with an 81-run win over LSG in a largely one-sided encounter at MA Chidambaram Stadium on Wednesday. Former India cricketer Irfan Pathan lavished praise upon the Uttarakhand seamer for putting up such a show in a high-stakes encounter.
Irfan Pathan said on Start Sports –
“We have never seen an uncapped player dominate in a high-pressure game. Akash Madhwal has picked up 9 wickets in the last two games. He deserves all the credit for taking MI to the Qualifier.”
Irfan also took to Twitter to laud the way MI help their players improve. Madhwal was a part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore as a net bowler in 2018 but has emerged as one of the crucial figures for MI in the bowling department.
