Rajasthan Royals this season have banked vigorously on their twist assault of Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin. While Chahal is the main wicket-taker this season coming into their Qualifier 2 conflict against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Friday, Ashwin has demonstrated to be closefisted with the ball generally. Nonetheless, previous India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar accepts that the veteran has confronted a “issue” on pitches that don’t offer a lot of turn, as he attempts to bowl such a large number of varieties and turns out to be incapable thus.
“Ravichandran Ashwin, he has somewhat of an issue on level tracks as he attempts a ton of varieties. He bowls less off-spinners on such events,” Manjrekar said on ESPNcricinfo.
“Wanindu Hasaranga and Chahal, the two leg-spinners, I figure the pitch doesn’t influence their exhibitions much. However, in the event that there is turn on the pitch, Rajasthan’s two dimensional twist assault of Ashwin and Chahal turns out to be more perilous, in light of the fact that then Ashwin turns into a risky bowler,” he added.
Manjrekar likewise brought up death bowling as a soft spot for the Sanju Samson-drove side.
“Each group has a shortcoming and Rajasthan’s is passing bowling Trent Boult is an elite bowler however they need to involve him with the new ball as his record isn’t that extraordinary in the demise overs,” he said.
“They have upheld Prasidh Krishna and he has done adequately well this season, yet the last match finished ineffectively for him. Obed McCoy has ended up being an unexpected bundle and they will trust him to convey,” Manjrekar said.
Rajasthan Royals and RCB will go head to head at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday, with the champ to take on Gujarat Titans in the last on Sunday.
