바카라I don바카라t have any regret anytime, the decisions I have taken in life have been taken as per my best ability at that time. And when it comes to selection, that is completely out of my hand,바카라 he said.
바카라There is only goal for me, whichever team I play, be it a club or IPL team, or when I will play for the country or when I play for Haryana, I try to put a positive impact in the game from whichever situation with ball or bat. That is my goal and it will remain my goal until I play cricket,바카라 he stressed.
Harshal, after claiming a match-winning hattrick in their IPL match against Mumbai Indians, was short of words and said it will take time to sink in. Glenn Maxwell justified his million-dollar contract with an all-round performance before Harshal took three wickets in three balls to ensure a thumping 54-run victory for RCB here on Sunday.
바카라First-time ever in my life, literally in my life, I have never taken a hat-trick even in a school game. In the IPL, I have been on a hattrick almost, this was my sixth time on hattrick and this is the first time I have got it. So, absolutely, I don바카라t know, it is difficult to explain, but it will take some time to sink in," Harshal said at the post-match press conference.
He stressed that the RCB want to play the brand of cricket, which was on display against MI, consistently. 바카라For me personally, I feel good, like I said in the pre-match interview as well, that I am (being) able to execute my skills pretty well," quipped the 30-year-old seamer.
바카라In terms of the team, we are not looking at the points table because, if you look at the points table, then your mind goes away from the process. The difficult thing for us was to overcome this inertia of two losses, which we have done in this game and we want to continue this momentum and we want to play this brand of cricket consistently,바카라 he said.
According to Harshal, who has played 64 first-class games, his stock ball is the hard-length delivery. 바카라But many times, the game dictates something else, like in Sharjah I try to bowl more slower balls, in Abu Dhabi when we had played, I had 80 per cent quick deliveries.
바카라So, I always let the situations dictate what I am going to bowl, rather than thinking that I am a fast bowler and I need to bowl (more) quicker or slower balls without getting into the game. My stock ball is the one which the situation dictates,바카라 he explained.
He also said that the wicket of swashbuckling West Indies all-rounder Kieron Pollard was 바카라very satisfactory바카라. 바카라Because it was a bluff, because we had planned in the meeting, that a batsman like Pollard, can set up by bowling wide and then you can bowl a yorker at the heel, which he might miss.
바카라So, at that time, I felt that I (was) bowling the slower ball well and my square-leg was up, so rather than bowling a fast-paced yorker at its heel, I tried to ball a bit slow and that bowl was well bowled and he missed it,바카라 he added.
According to Patel, he didn't expect such 바카라a one-sided affair바카라 against the defending champions. Harshal, who is the purple cap holder for taking maximum wickets, said that he was feeling confident about his body and skill right now.
바카라Last three years have been a breakthrough for me because some people bloom late and I consider myself to be one of those people, I definitely bloomed late,바카라 the 30-year-old said.
바카라I am at a place in my career right now that I am feeling very confident about my body, my skill and whatever situation I will be put in, I'll just try and make a positive impact and I know for a fact that I have the skills to do that,바카라 he signed off.
