?I am constantly learning from mistakes. You make mistakes as a youngster. But Zaheer Bhai said one thing. When you are a junior and a newcomer in the team, the faster you learn from your mistakes, the better it will be for you…The faster you will learn. That’s what I try and do,? said Yadav, explaining the influence that Khan’s words carry.

Yadav going contrary to the conjecture expressed that his fierce pace would never get compromised for achieving consistency in the length of deliveries instead he would contemplate on introducing new techniques to improve his bowling. ?It is because of speed that I am here. The pace was my weapon, it has given me recognition…Now, I’m trying to balance swing and the length with the pace. That will be helpful.? he added.

He showed his urge to continue his magnificent bowling spell in the future just like the way he has been ruling the Caribbean tour in the ongoing series. Zaheer Khan has been a pivot in Yadav’s revamping quest as his advice will definitely start paying off for Yadav with remarkable feats in the future.
