In just 8 Tests, Kyle Jamieson has taken 5- five-wicket hauls and is closing in on 50 Test wickets. Dasgupta stated that Kyle Jamieson challenges batsmen in a unique way, adding that batsmen don’t usually come across such skill sets in international cricket.
The former wicketkeeper-batsman was quoted as saying by The Telegraph:
The fast bowler was once again in his element in the World Test Championship (WTC) final, returning a five-wicket haul in the first innings. Jamieson conceded only 31 runs at an astonishingly low economy of 1.41. He accounted for the dismissals of three big guns in the Indian batting unit - Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant.
Deep Dasgupta backs Kyle Jamieson to be successful in sub-continent conditions
Kyle Jamieson is yet to play in subcontinental conditions where seamers generally don’t get too much help off the surface. However, Dasgupta argued that Jamieson was a good bowler irrespective of the conditions. He also cited examples of how Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami were successful in subcontinent conditions.
Jamieson has taken international cricket by storm in his short career and is also a capable lower-order batsman. The 26-year-old has a half-century to his name in Test cricket as well. He scored an unbeaten 51 against West Indies in December 2020.
