IPL 2020, RCB vs MI: Krunal Pandya emulates Kedar Jadhav’s bizarre ‘below sea-level action’

Much like Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya kept it low and wicket to wicket, probably adding creativity to his bowling.

Mumbai Indians (MI) bowler, Krunal Pandya bowled a Kedhar Jadhav-like round-arm style delivery against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Monday.

Much like Jadhav, Pandya kept it low and wicket to wicket, probably adding creativity to his bowling.

The slow sidearm bowling has been used to good effect by Jadhav but Pandya was overdoing it a bit as he tried to go for the quicker ones.

Mumbai won the toss and decided to field first against Bangalore.

While MI have made one change with left-hander Ishan Kishan replacing another southpaw Saurabh Tiwary, RCB has leg spinner Adam Zampa, left-arm seamer Isuru Udana and right-handed top-order batsman Gurkeerat Singh Mann in their playing XI. Players to sit out are Umesh Yadav, Josh Phillippe and Dale Steyn.
