I want you to start Jaiswal…
Talk about espncricinfo, Cheteshwarphara Yashasvi Jaiswal said he has a strong record against Mitchell Starc, who may have been able to give the Rajasthan Royals a psychological advantage. Puhala added that Nichish Rana should have been part of the three batters chosen for the super.
“I think Nitish should have been there in these three,” Puhala said.
“But I don’t know if he should start. I want to start with Jayswal for the way he hits against Mitchell Stark – his record (STARC) was phenomenal across the format (26 times from 15 balls in the T20S, 203-133 with 3 fireds in the Test).
“I know it was a super over and Starc was just trying to run his yoker, but there is a psychological advantage. If Yashasvi had faced some balls, Starc would have been under some pressure,” he added.
I’m also biased towards Nichish Rana – Ian Bishop
