Attacking winger Işan Kişan practiced with net balls.
28-year-old Usman Tariq took 3 wickets for 27 runs against USA, his bowling act is being discussed in Indian media quite interestingly.
Earlier, Ravichandran Ashwin discussed the bowling action of Pakistan’s secret spinner in a way that he broke the bowling action of Usman Tariq.
Ravichandran Ashwin gave an example of a card game involving Usman Tariq and called it ‘stick of order’.
After the conversation, the sports journalist spoke to referee Anil Chaudhry, who was told that the rule applies only when there is a clear and noticeable change in the suspension pattern.
And he added that if the bowling rest was part of Usman Tariq’s normal bowling action, then it would be considered legal.
On the other hand, in a press conference today, the captain of the Indian team Surya Kumar Yadav said that Usman Tariq is a different player but he cannot surrender.
He also said that Pakistan’s spinners are playing well, we have planned.
