IND W V AUS W: In-swinger, The New Weapon In Her Arsenal, Did The Trick For Pooja Vastrakar
DY Patil Stadium: Medium pacer Pooja Vastrakar was the star for India on the opening day of the only Test of the all-format series against Australia Women as she claimed 4-53 to help the hosts bundle out the visitors for a paltry 219 at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday.
What made the difference for Vastrakar was the in-swinger that she had developed ahead of the two Test matches against England and Australia, after watching videos of the two teams.
"Naturally, I have out-swing but while watching the videos of both these teams, (we noticed that) they face some difficulty in facing incoming deliveries. We practiced during the training to try and get the ball moving in with the wobble seam since the ball cuts well with the wobble seam and batters face difficulty," Vastrakar said in the post-day press conference at the Wankhede Stadium here on Thursday.
