India all-rounder Shardul Thakur has said that every bowler in his side needs to be ready to bowl at the death overs as this is a big responsibility.
Suryakumar Yadav’s 65-run knock was backed up by a spirited bowling performance as India defeated West Indies by runs in the third and final T20I here at the Eden Gardens on Sunday. Harshal Patel returned with three wickets while Venkatesh Iyer also got two wickets.
“I think so. I have done it in the IPL for CSK for the last four years. Playing for India is a greater responsibility and five months before the World Cup, we all have to be ready as a bowler to bowl in the death. You have to be ready to use your variations, you are going to go for runs but one six or four shouldn’t play on your mind. We have to be mentally tough and think about the next delivery,” Shardul told host broadcaster Star Sports.
