Yuzvendra Chahal praises Naman Dhir's courage after West Indies win
Yuzvendra Chahal said Naman Dhir showed the courage to bowl after being hit for sixes, comparing him to Kedar Jadhav for his all-round value.
Yuzvendra Chahal praised Naman Dhir for showing courage to bowl after being hit for sixes during India's 14-run win over West Indies in the third T20I. Dhir took two wickets for 39 runs in three overs, dismissing Shimron Hetmyer and Kamil Pooran after being struck for boundaries in the same overs. Chahal said Dhir has the self-belief to execute plans under pressure on small grounds.
Chahal compared Dhir's role to Kedar Jadhav, noting that Dhir bats at number five or six while bowling two to four overs in T20Is. He said the Mumbai Indians all-rounder changes his line and length to confuse batters regardless of conditions. Dhir's performances have added another dimension to his game beyond his middle-order batting.
