Australian limited-overs specialist Glenn Maxwell has revealed that he employed a very different strategy to counter Delhi Capitals` Kuldeep Yadav at the Wankhede Stadium on April 16, saying that he aimed to hit the spinner towards the short boundary and was quite successful.

Maxwell smashed 55 off just 34 balls, while later in the innings Dinesh Karthik`s unbeaten 66 did the damage as RCB scored a competitive 189/5 and then restricted DC to 173/7 to make it four wins in six for the Bengaluru outfit. Maxwell took 23 runs off Kuldeep Yadav in an over to begin RCB`s resurgence. "When Kuldeep came on from that end, (I decided to) just hit it to the short boundary. I thought I`ll take him on that side, and I was able to get a hold of a few," said Maxwell.
