I learnt to vary pace after SA series: Spinner Poonam Yadav

Poonam Yadav

Senior India spinner Poonam Yadav, who endured a dry spell in the previous series against South Africa, says she has learnt to vary her pace that helped her snare two wickets in the second ODI against England.

England beat India by five wickets in the second women's ODI to take a 2-0 series-clinching lead here on Wednesday. Yadav was the pick of the bowlers for the visitors as she registered the figures of 2-63. The wickets of captain Heather Knight and wicketkeeper Amy Jones were her first since November 2019.

"I worked on varying my pace and I had time between these two series to work that out. I got a wicket after a long time. For any bowler, it matters to get among the wickets and contribute to the team and complete the spell. I was a little expensive today, I could have done better," Yadav said during the post-match virtual press conference.
