He took 3 wickets for 51 runs in 10 overs. After the match, Shardul said that he had made a strategy to stop the Australian batsmen from playing pull and cut shots, which worked. He also praised T Nataraj and said that the team needs such a fast bowler.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Pull and cut shots prevented from playing<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p><strong>Shardul said,<\/strong> &#8216;Australian batsmen have played pull and cut shots to score runs against India in the entire series. I did not let them put this shot. I forced him to play straight shots, which proved to be correct. I think sometimes we have luck as well. &#8216;<\/p>\n\n\n<p>He said &#8220;&#8216;When Steve Smith was batting, we bowled under a strategy. We played him at the off stump. But the ball going to the leg side hit his bat and he was caught out. It was a great pleasure for me. Smith is a top class batsman. Getting his wicket at the beginning of the match was a big deal.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Super win last night \ud83d\ude0d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6UbgtQLDme\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/6UbgtQLDme<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Shardul Thakur (@imShard) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/imShard\/status\/1334321957332914177?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">December 3, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Natarajan made a great comeback<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Shardul also praised Natarajan. He said, &#8216;Natarajan is a great bowler. He also did well in the IPL. He also bowled brilliantly in his first match. It shows that they are big players. India needs a similar bowler. He made a great comeback despite scoring runs in the match.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Shardul said, &#8216;You will share runs in white-ball format. It is important that you come back and prove yourself. You need to bring confidence in yourself so that you can win your team.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Maxwell-Aston split 18 runs in 44th over<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Please tell that in the third ODI against Australia, Natarajan made his debut in international cricket.
