Speaking after Saturday’s game in a clip uploaded by Iplt20.com, Khan said, “Basically, you’ve got to close those moments in the game where the momentum is shifting and as a team, we haven’t been able to do that. So, that is something we have to focus on, focus on the positives and whatever things have been working for us. Keep working on that, keep building on that because it’s a long season so we have to keep things tight, keep things together.”

“Like I said, there is still 11 league matches to go, so we’ve got to get on a roll. We’ve seen in this tournament that teams get on a losing roll or the winning momentum and those back to back wins are something which we will to see. It’s just a matter of a first win. At times, you get tight as well, you start doubting yourselves in situations where the pressure is highest. So, that is something which we have to be aware of and look for that spark in that group. Not every day is going to be your day but the individuals having a good day need to carry the team and get us that win which is going to be very important,” Zaheer Khan concluded.
