Young Kolkata Knight Riders pacer Kartik Tyagi on Wednesday said he got a lot of help from team mentor Dwayne Bravo about implementation of one’s skills in match situations.
On the eve of KKR’s match against Lucknow Super Giants, Tyagi said, “Everyone knows about one’s skill set. Sometimes you make plans but when you are under pressure and you are playing after a long time, then you are not able to think properly. At such a time, when you have so much experience outside, that helps us a lot on the ground.”
The 25-year-old said he was aware that several key pacers of KKR would not be available due to injuries and he might get chances to play. “Long before, everyone knew that Harshit (Rana) bhai was injured. And there was a scene of (Matheesha) Pathirana being injured. So we prepared (accordingly).”
