Tendulkar says observing release point can help against Rashid

Hyderabad: Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Rashid Khan has been impressive in the ongoing Indian Premier League. He recorded a best economical spell of 3/7 in the match against Delhi Capitals.
Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar was in awe of the Afghanistan cricketer. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Sachin said, “Rashid is a world-class bowler. I’ve never played him but whatever I’ve seen and heard about him, the way he disguises his googly, very few batsmen can pick it. So, with a world-class bowler, you can never guess what ball he’s going to bowl. I’ve never played him so whenever I’ve seen him, it is the rear angle that I see him from.”
“It’s important to see the bowler’s grip, bowlers also hide their grip many times. One thing they can’t hide is how they release the ball. This way or that way, all this happens very quickly. But sometimes, you take some time to pick what the bowler is trying to do. I’d observe his run-up, how his arm is when he bowls,” Tendulkar added.
