Ashmead Nedd, the Guyanese spinner, is set to join the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) as a net bowler for the ongoing IPL 2022 tournament. It has been learned that Nedd’s compatriot Sherfane Rutherford had played a big part in bringing the left-arm spinner from Guyana into the RCB squad as a net bowler, and this will be a huge chance for the youth to get noticed.
Royal Challengers Bangalore are sitting pretty at the third spot in the Indian Premier League 2022 points table with 3 wins in 4 matches. They will be facing off against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their fifth match of the IPL 2022 at the DY Patil Stadium on April 12, 2022, which will be the 22nd match of the tournament.
Meanwhile, Nedd was part of the West Indies team in the recent ICC U19 World Cup and has played seven games in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) picking up three wickets at an impressive economy rate of 5.64. The 21-year-old made his List A debut in 2019 and has taken 17 wickets in 12 games at an economy rate of 3.50.
Going To RCB Can Really Help Me With My Game: Ashmead Nedd
Ashmead Nedd sees this net bowler opportunity to better his game while playing alongside the likes of Faf du Plessis, Virat Kohli, and Glenn Maxwell. He also said that he desired to ask them about the routines they would undergo as a professional.
He added that he is keen to learn about how he can take his game forward as a youngster to excel at the highest levels. Nedd is expected to leave by Tuesday (12th of April) for India.
“Going there as a spinner could really help me with my game. I want to ask simple stuff about their routine as a professional and how I can better my game as a youngster moving forward,” Ashmead Nedd told while speaking to News Room Sport.
Faf du Plessis has led the RCB team very well thus far and will be looking forward to playing against his former franchise, the CSK.
