IPL 2024: 'Learnt From PBKS Bowlers To Take Pace Off The Ball, And It Worked', Reveals Coetzee
Sawai Mansingh Stadium: Fast-bowler Gerald Coetzee, who finished with figures of 3-32 and play a starring role in Mumbai Indians edging Punjab Kings by nine runs in a thrilling IPL 2024 match, said he learnt from the hosts’ bowling line-up about the strategy to take the pace off the ball, which worked well at the end.
Coetzee took out Prabhsimran Singh and Liam Livingstone in power-play, before taking out a rampaging Ashutosh Sharma in the fag end of the innings to seal MI’s win. “I think we realised from their innings and the mistakes we made in our innings that you had to use the big boundary.”
“They did well with taking pace off, which was quite hard. So, I think we just really learnt from their innings. We adapted our plans, and I think it worked. It's a big boundary, and he didn't hit it too badly. It was just some pace off on a big boundary," said Coetzee in the post-match press conference.
