“I don’t think I have ever been so fearful of a 15-year-old kid in my life. But yeah, we have obviously done a little bit of planning going into the game. It was nice that it paid off,” Jamieson said in a video shared on the IPL website. “For most teams looking at Rajasthan’s side, it’s their top two that have got them off to fliers. Starcy got one with a high full toss and I got one with a Yorker. It was nice to get away early and sort of I guess stem the flow a little in the power play.”

“He is world class right, so whenever you can have one of those guys in your squad, it’s a huge benefit. He came at the right time, we sort of needed to get a bit of a move on, on the points table. Nice to share the new ball with him, he is pretty surreal,” Kyle Jamieson concluded.
