England paceman Mark Wood stated it was an incredible experience for him to bowl at MS Dhoni. Fast bowler Wood of the Lucknow Super Giants recalled the exciting atmosphere at the MA Chidambaram Stadium as MS Dhoni came out to bat in the final over.
Mark Wood was hit for back-to-back sixes but had the last laugh after taking Dhoni’s wicket.
Wood said he bowled just where he and LSG skipper KL Rahul planned, but the former India captain was still able to hit the ball cleanly.
“I and KL were talking. We were trying to stay calm and trying to work out how to get him out. In my mind, I was not trying to be defensive. I was actually thinking of ways to stop him from scoring runs and get him out. Unfortunately, it cost me 12 runs. But, that second shot in particular was an amazing shot. I bowled it exactly where KL and I decided. Get a bouncer and get it wide so that he has to fetch it if he is to take it. For him to hit it that far was pretty incredible,” Wood said in a video uploaded on ESPNcricinfo.
