IPL 2023: Suresh Raina Impressed With Emergence Of Tushar Deshpande, Matheesha Pathirana
In Chennai Super Kings' six-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians at Chepauk on Saturday, their fast-bowling trio of Deepak Chahar, Tushar Deshpande and Matheesha Pathirana stepped up to give the four-time champions a rare double over the five-time winners.
While it was heartening to see Chahar pick up two wickets after missing many games due to injury, what would have gladdened Chennai's die-hard fans would have been the performances of Deshpande and Pathirana, who are slowly emerging as fast-bowling mainstays for MS Dhoni, despite the injuries in fast-bowling department in the run-up and mid-way of the competition.
