Avesh Khan the young India pacer who represented Delhi Capitals in the recently postponed Indian Premier League (IPL 2021,Indian T-20 League) and recently got a call for Indian senior Cricket team for their tour to England and World test championship revealed that how he alongwith Delhi captain Rishabh Pant planned and set up to get the wicket of former India captain and Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Avesh Khan reveals in an interview to a top notch English daily from India
“Only a few overs were left and Pant knew that Dhoni will try to hit out. But he also knew that Dhoni is playing after a gap of four months and it won’t be easy for him. Pant told me to bowl just short of a length. I did just that, Dhoni tried to hit, but got an inside edge and was bowled.” Incidentally Avesh Khan in IPL 2021 played 8 matches, picking up 14 wickets. He went on to further add
“When I was about to start my bowling run-up, I used to look at Pant. At that moment the batsman is watching only me, and not anyone else. So if Pant wants me to bowl a yorker, we have a sign for it. If he wants me to bowl wide outside off, I will know by his sign.”
