#3 Contrasting performances by Khaleel Ahmed and Shardul Thakur
41 runs in 4 overs with 3 no-balls in an over is a recipe for disaster on any day against any team. Shardul Thakur had one such day as he failed to control his line and lengths and was taken to the cleaners.
On the other hand, debutant Khaleel Ahmed had a great start to his career as he picked 3 wickets for 48 runs. Khaleel not only provided vital breakthroughs in the middle but was also handed the task of bowling the death overs. Needless to say, Khaleel passed with flying colours.
