"We always try to find the weakness"- Avesh Khan on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's weakness
Avesh Khan also spoke about how he planned against Vaibhav Sooryavanshi while discussing with the video analyst and finding the Southpaw’s weaknesses and strengths. However, despite being out on a bouncer, Vaibhav has also struck the same ball out of the park.
"And as far as planning is concerned, we always think that when we sit with video analysts or coaches, we always try to find the weakness of the batsman. Where can we find his weakness? And we try to bowl there. Because whenever there are meetings, the video analysts always tell us that this particular player's scoring shot is less at this place. Or it is difficult to score here.
"So, we work more on those things. Where to put the line and length? Where to aim at the pad line or the wide line? Is it weak in the bouncer or is it weak in the slower? So, we watch all those things sitting with video analysts. And we make a particular plan for every batsman. And we try to execute it in the match."
