Cricket-Bangalore's Patel says he won't shy away from bowling under pressure


(Reuters) - Fast bowler Harshal Patel said he wants to be called upon in high-pressure situations after holding his nerve in the death overs as Royal Challengers Bangalore beat Lucknow Super Giants by 14 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) eliminator.

Patel played a key role in Bangalore's victory as he took the wicket of Lucknow's Marcus Stoinis in the 18th over, just a couple of deliveries after giving away six wides.
