Former New Zealand: Former New Zealand pacer Mitchell McClenaghan lauded Anshul Kamboj for his impressive bowling display, saying the young pacer has developed a clear plan and execution that is making him effective, following Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) eight-wicket win over Mumbai Indians.

Kamboj played a crucial role in restricting MI to 159/7 with figures of 3/32, helping CSK pull things back after the visitors were well-placed at 90/2 in 10 overs.

“Previous to coming to CSK, I don’t think he had a real plan or idea of what he wanted to do at the death. And so I think he’s found something. It may not be successful in all conditions, but he’s found a plan that works for him. He can execute it, and it’s making him very effective, turns him into that three-phase bowler. You can put that down to the old CSK blueprint, when you had Bravo, and obviously Eric Simons is still there. They really like guys to come around the wicket,” McClenaghan said on ESPNcricinfo.
