#5 Umesh Yadav’s devastating spell
Pakistan were the unfortunate victims as Umesh Yadav decided to channel his inner Kapil Dev. Among the three pacers in the team, Umesh wasn’t expected to be the best bowler on the night, but in his 7.4 overs, he did everything a bowler should - he was economical and picked up wickets.
While Jadeja and Pandya cleaned up Pakistan’s middle order, Umesh got the important wicket of Babar Azam and then completed his spell by dismantling the tail-enders. He ended with figures of 3/30 in what was an impressive start to the Champions Trophy for the pacer.
