'Ishaan bhaiya did not know that I was a wicket taker'
While talking about his brilliant bowling in a video shared by BCCI Domestic, Vaibhav made an interesting revelation. He said that if you ask any batsman, he enjoys bowling. The opposing team's wickets were not falling, so I was asked to bowl 2-3 overs. Ishaan bhaiya felt that handing me the ball was a risk, but he did not know that I was a wicket-taker and bowler.
Flop with the bat, superhit with the ball
Vaibhav further said that I knew that even if I took 5 wickets, I would still get to bowl only 3 overs. So I just focused on my line and length. In the last match, I was not able to do much with the bat, so I enjoyed contributing to the bowling for the team. Talking about the match, Vaibhav was a flop with the bat and could score only 8 runs in 6 balls. But he left his mark in bowling.
