After Punjab Kings: After Punjab Kings sealed a narrow 11-run victory over Gujarat Titans in a high-scoring contest, head coach Ricky Ponting revealed what made him bring on Vyshak as an impact player, saying captain Shreyas Iyer asked him to bring the medium pacer to nail a couple of overs at yorkers and close out the game.
After Iyer led from the front, scoring an unbeaten 97 in 42 balls at a strike rate of 230.95, to help his side to a mammoth total of 243/5 in 20 overs, it was Vijaykumar Vyshak’s crucial middle-over spells that restricted GT to 232/5 at the end of their 20 overs to seal a narrow win .
"While sitting in the dugout, I was like they need 13 or 14 runs in an over and I sent the message to Shreyas and asked what do you want to do and he straight away said, just get Vyshak out here. He will nail a couple of overs at yorkers, and we will close the game and Vyshak was the one who changed the game," Ponting said.
