Karnataka pacer Vijaykumar Vyshak had a dream debut to his IPL (Indian Premier League) career as he dismissed Delhi Capitals skipper David Warner in his first over.
The 26-year-old deceived the Aussie with a back-of-length slower delivery that was pulled straight to Virat Kohli at midwicket by Warner and conceded just seven runs in his first over.
Vyshak, the quickest bowler in the Karnataka side in domestic cricket, was the leading wicket-taker for his team in the Ranji Trophy 2022-23, picking 31 wickets in eight matches at at an average of 24.58.
Interestingly, some years ago, Vyshak considered himself a batter.
“In my junior days, I was primarily a batter who could bowl slow-medium. When I was 18, Raman sir, my coach at Basavanagudi Cricket Academy, indirectly motivated me at the nets by saying ‘you can’t bowl fast’. When he told me I couldn’t bowl fast, that triggered me. That’s where my journey as a pacer started,” Vyshak had told Sportstar.
Vyshak came into the RCB squad for IPL 2023 as replacement for the injured batter Rajat Patidar.
