Though Deshpande conceded 30 runs in his three overs, he made his debut memorable by dismissing Zimbabwe skipper Sikandar Raza (28-ball 46) through his captain Shubman Gill in the fourth T20I at Harare on Saturday.    

“I was expecting Tushar to get a chance to play in this match. I am really happy that he has represented India and got a wicket in the very first game. I was really excited to see him bowling at such a big stage,” Deshpande Sr told mid-day on Saturday. 
 
Tushar’s father, who was also a fast bowler and represented his employers, United India Insurance, in Mumbai’s Times Shield tournament for 25 years, reckoned his son’s performance will improve with experience.

“Tushar possesses qualities of a good fast bowler and the more experience he gets, the more mature he will become. International cricket is different, but he will do well as he gets that experience,” remarked Uday.
