But avesh

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: In the IPL 2024 Eliminator clash, Rajasthan Royals (RR) pacer Avesh Khan was hit for 30 runs in his first two overs. But when it mattered the most, Avesh stepped up by conceding only 14 runs in his last two overs and taking three wickets to keep the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to 172/8 at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

Avesh's spell in the death overs, an area where he’s excelled for RR in this season, proved to be the difference yet again in the side’s march to Qualifier 2. Sticking to the deliveries which have worked well for him in the last five overs has been the key in Avesh’s success.

"I try to give my 100 per cent, stay relaxed and bowl the delivery that I would have thought about at the top of my mark. In the death overs, I always try to bowl a wide yorker/yorker or a slow bouncer. I have got good results from these deliveries and I don't change much," he said in the post-match press conference.
