Watch: Krunal Pandya Bowls a Bouncer in England

All-rounder Krunal Pandya, who featured for India A recently, surprised everybody while bowling a bouncer to an England Lions batter during a match of the tri-series which also involved Windies A.

Meanwhile, Shreyas Iyer led-side grabbed the title beating hosts England Lions in the final. India chased down the target with five wickets in hand and 10 balls to spare.

Explosive wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant and Pandya played handy knocks to see their team through.

India A faced England Lions thrice in the event, including the final and in one of the matches Krunal intentionally bowled a bouncer to a batsman.

Such was the pace and bounce in the delivery that it hurried the England Lions batsman and hit him right in the elbow.

The left-arm spinner Krunal shared the video of the ball on Twitter and gave a funny caption.

“Why should fast bowlers have all the fun?” the post read.

Furthermore, young Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan came in support of Krunal’s exception. Rashid also noted that spinners should work more on bouncers.

“Exactly we should work on it,” Rashid wrote on Twitter.

Meanwhile, Krunal recently replaced Washington Sundar in India’s Twenty20 International squad against England. However, he failed to make the cut for the playing XI.

Krunal Pandya has impressed one and all with his all-round skills in the India Premier League (IPL).

The Baroda-based cricketer has played an instrumental role in Mumbai’s IPL triumph in 2017 whereas, his List A record is also impressive.

In 31 List A matches, he has amassed 862 runs at an average of 33.15 and has picked up 31 scalps with one four-wicket haul.
