T20 WC: Hit The Stumps, And Change Of Pace Key To Maphaka Shining Bright Against Zimbabwe
With Kagiso Rabada, Marco Jansen and Keshav Maharaj all rested ahead of Wednesday's semi-final clash against New Zealand in Kolkata, Maphaka was among those asked to step up and did so emphatically, by finishing with figures of 2-21 in his four overs. It included the prized wicket of Zimbabwe skipper Sikandar Raza - the man who had been taking apart every other bowler - in the 17th over, as he popped a skier to David Miller at point.
"To be honest, we thought the wicket was going to be a little bit quicker, maybe a little bit more bounce. The last game we played in Delhi was a bit skiddier. Today was a little bit lower and slower, so we just tried to adapt to that as quick as possible - hit the stumps, and change of pace a lot of the times," he said, while replying to a query from IANS in the mixed zone interaction.
