In the latest Indian Premier League match, young spinner Digvesh Singh Rathi emerged as the linchpin for Lucknow Super Giants' triumph over Mumbai Indians, receiving accolades from prominent cricket figures. Former Indian batting coach Sanjay Bangar lauded Rathi's disciplined bowling, which played a pivotal role in LSG's 12-run victory. His ability to effectively use the pitch, avoiding full-length deliveries, demonstrated both skill and strategic prowess.

LSG head coach Justin Langer further commended Rathi's relentless dedication, noting his commitment to continuous improvement. Langer described Rathi as a cricketer with an incredible work ethic, someone who would practice tirelessly, even in unconventional spaces like hotel corridors or the shower. Rathi's unparalleled discipline was key to his standout performance in the match.

Rathi's efforts earned him the Player of the Match award, credited to his crucial dismissal of Naman Dhir, a significant threat during the high-scoring game. Inspired by Sunil Narine, Rathi intends to embrace an aggressive bowling style while maintaining composure under pressure, aiming to replicate Narine's success in his own game.
