SRH Vs DC: SRH pacer Jaydev Unadkat delivers a decent outing for his side against DC in their IPL 2025 Match 55, as the Indian veteran just conceded 13 runs in his 4 overs, grabbing the crucial wicket of highly-dangerous KL Rahul.
DC were restricted at 133/7 at the end of their innings, before rain played a spoilsport and abandoned the match.
Here’s What Jaydev Unadkat Said
“Hitting the deck was the plan. The way the first over went, we knew hitting the deck is the way and we got wickets as well which helped to stop the flow of the runs. The basic plan was the same to hit the deck and vary the pace which is the strength of many bowlers including myself. Taking wickets at crucial stages was important.”
“[On the surface getting better] It did get better to bat. The way it started it looked like it was stopping. Hopefully it won’t help the spinners as much and we will chase the total.”
“[On bowling to KL Rahul] I won’t say it’s a weakness but as a bowler you got to have some sort of an armory and one of those is the angle. I have bowled to KL in the past both over and round the wicket but I think I have more of a chance against him around the wicket. I like to make the change in angle.”
