The Cover said, I could not understand what is happening After the match, the camp said, “I did not understand what was going on because of the overbreaking over.” I just trusted my bowling and kept everything simple.
When asked if he could take 6 wickets in 6, he jokingly said, no, it would not have happened. What has happened is enough. I am happy to come back to the field.
Great return after injury The core was recently ruled out of the series against the West Indies due to a finger injury. After the return, he scored 57 runs in 35 balls in the first match and scored 44 runs off 24 balls in this match.
He said, you get mentally in trouble when you get hurt. But now it looks good by returning with the team. I was pressurizing myself to perform, and this hard work paid off.
The cikers could not play the series injury against the West Indies.
This has happened in women’s cricket This record has been made for the first time in men, but this record has already been made in women. Zimbabwe’s Kalis Nadhlovu took five wickets in five consecutive balls in 2024, playing for Zimbabwe Under-19.
