Harshal did not celebrate much after taking the wicket of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. When he was asked about this, he said after the match, āI have a lot of respect for Dhoni. That’s why whenever I take his wicket I don’t celebrate. The biggest advantage of playing on this ground is that the ball reverses here. The ball was reversing in my very first over. Bowling slow was beneficial.ā
