India vs West Indies: Navdeep Saini impresses on ODI debut

The Hindu  

Navdeep Saini, whose shyness masks his aggression as a pace bowler, is a captain’s delight. IND v WI | LIVE UPDATES Saini, who made his T20I debut memorable by picking three wickets against the same opponent earlier this year, also proved his worth in the 50-over format. The well set Roston Chase was done in by an accurate and fast yorker in Saini’s next over as India applied brakes on West Indies’ fast scoring rate in the middle overs. I am putting in that extra effort always in practice sessions as well as in matches,” Saini had said after being named a standby for the World Cup-bound India squad this year. Appreciation from Nehra For his usefulness, the 27-year-old Saini, who recovered from injuries to make an impact for Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League this year, wins appreciation from Ashish Nehra.
