"My plan was to swing the ball"- GT pacer Umesh Yadav after restricting LSG to 163/5 in IPL 2024 clash
At the mid-innings break, veteran GT pacer Umesh Yadav reflected on his spell, saying:
"With the way how I've been doing with the new ball in the last 3 or 4 games, I managed to do well in the powerplay here and picked up two wickets in this game and all the hard work has been paying off, just followed that plan."
He added:
"My plan was to swing the ball if there was any swing on offer, also not forget about landing it on the right length as well and if you try anything outside of that, it would go wayward but I stuck to my plans. The wicket is a bit spongy but dew might come on now and we should be able to chase it down."
