Having been used sporadically in recent weeks, the spinner showed his calmness under pressure by producing his finest spell in a Worcestershire shirt after stand-in skipper Roderick\u00a0threw the 21-year-old the ball in the final over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was senior figure and overseas talisman Usama Mir who helped the young spinner, offering some words of\u00a0encouragement\u00a0and tactical\u00a0advice\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Having sealed his team victory, the Rapids are in\u00a0a very strong\u00a0position to kick onto a knockout place, with Singh excited by the prospect of playing Gloucestershire\u00a0in another heavyweight fixture on Friday night.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously here,\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0one smaller side, and there\u2019s big wind.\u00a0So\u00a0managing your bowlers can be quite difficult but the way Roders did it worked\u00a0really well.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI guess\u00a0that\u2019s\u00a0the beauty of T20 cricket, isn\u2019t it? And I think after Usama had bowled four, he came over and said a few words to me, which really helped me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u00a0basically just\u00a0pretty much said\u00a0bowl with your heart, look at the wicket,\u00a0maybe\u00a0bowl\u00a0a bit slower\u00a0because I bowled\u00a0a bit quicker\u00a0in\u00a0my first over, and slower\u00a0seemed to\u00a0work better.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, the figures show\u00a0that\u00a0[bowling at one end worked better]\u00a0but\u00a0it\u00a0didn\u2019t\u00a0really make a difference.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the vibes\u00a0and\u00a0the morale\u00a0is\u00a0pretty high\u00a0in the\u00a0changing room\u00a0right now.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0a\u00a0really good\u00a0win\u00a0and\u2029I\u2019m\u00a0really looking forward now to Friday\u00a0against\u00a0Gloucestershire at home.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know\u00a0New\u00a0Road. \u2029We know it well.\u00a0We\u2019ve\u00a0gone\u00a0really well\u00a0there on a Friday night\u00a0so far this year, so hopefully\u00a0we can keep that form.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Having been used sporadically in recent weeks, the spinner showed his calmness under pressure by producing his finest…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":677013,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[1721,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-677012","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-cricket","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=677012"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677012\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/677013"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=677012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=677012"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=677012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
