The 26-year-old has made a noticeable change to his load-up, gathering the ball closer to his body. “That’s helped me rip the leg-break a little bit more without hampering the amount of turn for my googly. The change is significant for a bowler whose googly had previously been his bigger turning delivery. In previous seasons, I was turning my googly a lot,” he said. For Jhathavedh, working with Ashwin remains special.
