But arundhati

Dubai International Stadium: Seam-bowling all-rounder Arundhati Reddy’s first stint in the Indian team saw her play 26 T20Is from 2018 to 2021, and took 18 wickets, before going down the pecking order. But Arundhati forced a return to the Indian team this year and the comeback hit its crescendo when she took career-best figures of 3-19 and played a major hand in the side’s six-wicket win over Pakistan at Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

Now with the Player of the Match medallion, Arundhati talked of the efforts she put in her time away from the Indian team to be a more complete T20 bowler. “Honestly, the last couple of years I've tried to really work on my bowling as a complete T20 bowler. Again, there's a lot of work that's gone behind it, because I wanted to be a bowler who can bowl in all phases.”

“I look forward to being that bowler who can bowl in all phases. So, the preparation has been accordingly as per it and it's something that I've been working on for two years. So, I know I'm a lot prepared as of now. I know I'm confident enough to that I can deliver for the team as and when it's required. So that's about it,” she said in the post-match press conference.
