Talking About the Game, Rohit Admitted the Trivandrum wicket was tricky
“The wicket was tricky. You learn a lot playing such a game, Rohit admitted. You understand what the team needs to do in tough conditions. It was nice to play a game like that. We knew the bowlers will get something seeing grass on the pitch, but we didn’t expected help for the full 20 overs. It was still damp. Both teams were in the contest and the team that played better won the game.
Sharma then praised his players, especially the top performers who held their nerves and took the team to another win. He said, “We started well, got 5 wickets in quick time and that was the turning point.
Perfect showcase of how to bowl when there is help for the pacers (talking about Deepak Chahar and Arshdeep). We knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Got to respect the conditions. Lost two wickets and that partnership between KL and Surya got us home.”
