Taking Wickets Is Key To Stopping Batters From Big Totals In T20s, Says Harbhajan Singh

By IANS News May 21, 2024 • 09:48 AM View: 902

Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh believes the key to restraining aggressive batting in modern-day cricket lies in the bowlers' ability to take wickets regularly after the Indian Premier League's (IPL) 2024 ongoing season saw teams breaching the 200-run mark at ease on multiple occasions.

Harbhajan, who played 103 Tests, 236 ODIs, and 28 T20Is for India, emphasised that bowlers should aim for wickets even at the cost of conceding runs. He shared his insights in Episode 5 of the podcast series '180 Not Out'.
