IND vs AUS: "Takes Pressure Off You"- Harshal Patel Thanks Rahul Dravid And Rohit Sharma For Being Supportive Through Injury

Indian Cricket Team’s fast bowler Harshal Patel is all set to make a comeback after an injury lay-off period. Harshal Patel is known for his deceptive slower balls & cutters where the batters find it very difficult to pick him. It would be quite exciting to see how he fares against a power-packed Australian team on 20th September where picking the wickets won’t be easy.

Indian pacer is quite pivotal to the setup for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022 as he plays the role of 3rd seamer.

Captain Rohit Sharma & Head Coach Rahul Dravid would be aware that the pacer would find it difficult to be at its best. There are chances that the pacer may get thrashed but at the same time, the management should be patient as he has shown his worth.

Harshal Patel on Rohit Sharma & Rahul Dravid

Harshal Patel was seen having an interaction with ESPNCricinfo ahead of the high-voltage India vs Australia T20I Series. “They (India coach Rahul Dravid and captain Rohit Sharma) have been nothing but supportive. It does take a bit of pressure off you. Because sometimes people make foolish decisions when they’re returning to play.

“They’re either trying to do too much or trying to push too hard because they feel that their place is in danger or for whatever reason,” said Harshal

“But if you know for a fact that the team management will remember what you’ve done prior to getting injured, and those performances and contributions are not forgotten, then that gives you a sense of calm or comfort that once you go back into the team-obviously you will have to perform again and again and that goes for every single cricketer-you know that you will hold that place in the team,” he further added.

Dangerous Bowling Attack

With the inclusion of Jasprit Bumrah, the bowling attack of India looks quite threatening. We all have seen that Bumrah is not only a Yorker specialist but also a good power-play bowler. He and Bhuvneshwar Kumar can dismantle any bowling attack on a given day.

Indian Cricket Team would be hoping that the pacer finds his rhythm immediately as his form is quite crucial.

It would be interesting to see how many spells he would be used. India would also try to squeeze one over in the middle overs as we have seen the team has got a little bit beating.
