BENGALURU: Pace is not Vidwath Kaverappa’s strength. Precision is. When West Zone came out to bat on Friday morning at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in the Duleep Trophy final, the tailenders remained and South’s mainstay Kaverappa was well-aware that the innings lead was crucial.
He mixed lengths, taunted the batters with short balls and sneaked one between Dharmendra Singh Jadeja’s bat and pad to crash the gate and claim his fourth five-wicket haul in the format.
