IPL 2022: Royal Challengers Bangalore wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik picked Punjab Kings’ Arshdeep Singh, Lucknow Super Giants’ Mohsin Khan and Gujarat Titans’ Yash Dayal as the uncapped Indian fast bowlers, making him the hardest hit at IPL 2022. Karthik himself has been in impressive form for Bangalore, finishing the tournament with an explosive bat and scoring 285 runs with a decent strike rate of 192.56.
<p style="text alignment: justify;"Left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep was a member of India's victorious ICC U-19 World Cup squad in 2018. But at IPL 2022, the Punjab Kings fast bowler took ten wickets in 13 matches, bowling exceptionally, especially in the death overs. Karthik said, "I am impressed with Arshdeep Singh's bowling as he has been very economical on death overs. I think he has rolled some good yorkers and has a lot of control over him. Even though they have a world class bowler Kagiso Rabada. But he has played tremendously.
<p style="text alignment: justify;"Lucknow Super Giants left arm pacemaker Mohsin has been a shining light of late in the tournament, taking 13 wickets in eight matches at a low economy rate of 5.93. They said, "He was picked late in the tournament, but he's making sure that when he bowls, he bowls well."
Although Dayal has played just six games for the Gujarat Titans, the left-arm speedster has taken nine wickets at an economic rate of 9.38. Dayal was also India’s net bowler in the Kanpur Test against New Zealand and a backup bowler for the ODI series against West Indies when a Covid-19 occurred in the Indian camp. Karthik said, "He has been an excellent bowler. He can spin both ways with the new ball."
<p estilo="text alignment: justify;"Karthik feels that in the 10 IPL franchises, almost three Indian fast bowlers are bowling over 140. They said, "One player, Umran Malik, has thrown from 157 km. He is a very good beat, he has impressed everyone and is slowly improving to become a better bowler. That is what makes the tournament so competitive and so beautiful to watch."
