Royal Challengers Bangalore off-spinner Washington Sundar currently has the best economy rate among spinners in this IPL, at 4.90. He now wants to win matches with his bat too.
"I would really love to win a match for RCB with my bat. I worked hard on my batting throughout the [Coronavirus-caused] lockdown phase and continued it here. I should definitely be able to perform well with the bat in the near future and hopefully, that will lead to winning a lot of matches thereafter," Sundar said during an online media interaction from Sharjah on Wednesday ahead of their match against Kings XI Punjab. Sundar, 21, who was promoted to No. 5 against Chennai Super Kings ahead of attacking batsman Shivam Dube, scored 10 off 10 in RCB's 37-run triumph.
