IPL 2019 | Navdeep Saini has massive future with Indian team, says Dominic Cork
Former England medium-pace, Dominic Cork, has heaped praise on Royal Challengers Bangalore pacer Navdeep Saini predicting that the latter has a massive future with the Indian national team. Saini managed to pick up a total of 11 wickets from 13 matches for RCB in this year’s Indian Premier League.
Navdeep Saini caused a lot of heads to turn when he was picked up for a massive sum of Rs 3 crores by the Royal Challengers Bangalore at the 2018 IPL auction. Having previously been a part of the Delhi Daredevils, now Delhi Capitals, squad in the IPL, Saini has impressed on the domestic circuit with the Delhi State team over the last couple of years.
While RCB endured a tough outing in this year’s Indian Premier League, Saini was one of the few domestic debutants to have impressed in the 12th edition of the tournament. Former England medium-pacer Dominic Cork, who acts as a Star Sports Select Dugout expert, declared that Saini will have a massive future with India in the coming years.
"For me when you look at Navdeep Saini, I think India will have a massive future with. If we actually clip on him here and we play.
"We need to see the deliveries with his pegs. The one thing I want to tell these young bowlers is that its about the head position. He (Saini) can be a little taller. It looks like he is just going to fall away so he might put his weight forward. So that is Saini, someone who is already very successful in this game," Cork said a media release on Monday.
The 26-year old Delhi pacer is one of the four pacers who will assist Team India in their ODI World Cup preparations in England. The RCB bowler will serve as a pacer in the nets and help Team India during the World Cup along with three others, as BCCI had revealed earlier.
