Delhi Capitals skipped Rishabh Pant has admitted that fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah’s no-balls helped in Capitals six-wickets win over Mumbai Indians.
Mumbai bowlers took the low-scoring game till the final over by removing DC’s top order batsmen. Just 15 runs required in the last 2 overs and Bumrah bowled the second last over.
“Everything helps in the end if you win the match,” added Pant while referring to Bumrah’s no-balls.
“I think Lalit is a great Indian player and we are looking to groom him,” said Pant on Yadav’s promotion to No. 4 batting slot ahead of the likes of him and Hetmyer.
“When we started we were little under pressure. Mishy bhai (Amit Mishra) got us into the game. Bowlers did a great job to restrict them to 137,” said Pant.
Pant praised Delhi Ranji teammate Lalit Yadav who contributed with both bat and ball in DC’s win. Lalit scored 22 runs and picked up 1 wicket off 17 runs.
