Dwayne Bravo did not have the paces of Lasith Malinga, Jasprit Bumrah, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mitchell Starc. But he kept putting pinpoint yorkers through his accurate bowling. During this, Bravo said, 'This is something that you should have in T20 format. If you don't have a Yorker, you won't last long. You will not survive unless you are a really fast bowler.

Whenever you are under pressure, especially at the end of the innings, the Yorker is always an effective ball.
