New Zealand pace bowler Kyle Jamieson, who has been at the receiving end of hateful comments from Indian fans after his five-wicket haul that included the wicket of India skipper Virat Kohli on Sunday, chilled out in the players' area with a game of table tennis as rain delayed start of play on the fourth day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"Wet weather has returned to the Hampshire Bowl so it's table tennis for now..," tweeted New Zealand Cricket on Monday along with a picture of the tall Kiwi pacer who wrecked the Indian batting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Besides trapping Kohli leg before wicket to trigger Indian collapse, Jamieson captured the wickets of Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Ishant Sharma -- all caught in slips -- and Jasprit Bumrah to complete to his fifth five-wicket haul, and his second against India.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Jamieson has picked 14 wickets across five Test innings against India and clearly the Indian fans weren't happy with his latest haul.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Some of the Indian fans hurled unpalatable abuses at Jamieson on twitter, questioning his place -- by implying he is ungrateful -- at the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) which is led by Kohli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Jamieson, who was bought by the RCB for Rs 15 crore, has had a stellar start to his Test career. He has picked 44 Test wickets already, and he is only into his eighth Test.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"We didn't start really well. We thought we fought back towards the latter part of the [second] day. [On Sunday morning] we talked about discipline and what we wanted to achieve. I guess it was good to be able to that," said Jamieson after the third day's play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"It is not my natural length (with the one he got Kohli out leg before)... I felt that whilst I felt good [on Saturday], probably my body was tentative and brought my lengths back. While on Sunday I found a lot more freer and was able to bring that length more fuller, tried to wobble the ball a little bit. It paid off today," he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Jamieson said that the bowling unit would accept any sizeable lead with glee.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"Hopefully, we can get 50, 100, 150 [run lead]. As a bowling unit we will take what we get really," he said.<\/p>\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2021\/06\/wtc-final-kyle-jamieson-chills-out-as-indian-fans-hurl-abuses-at-him.jpg", "alt_img": "Cricket Image for WTC Final: Kyle Jamieson Chills Out As Indian Fans Hurl Abuses At Him", "alt_title": "Kyle Jamieson ", "image1": "", "video": "", "seo_title": "WTC Final: Kyle Jamieson Chills Out As Indian Fans Hurl Abuses At Him On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Kyle Jamieson has been at the receiving end of hateful comments from Indian fans after his five-wicket haul that included the wicket of Virat Kohli.
