Even the best batters in the world are not perfect. Sometimes they can have an off day. Look, you have to give DC bowlers credit. They bowled well. They have some world-class bowlers and, upfront, they are very fast bowlers. They had a good day and we did not. That’s the game of cricket. “

“Sometimes, low-scoring matches can be very exciting. It depends on whether both teams are scoring low scores. Our guys in the field stuck at it the best we could. The wickets did not come, so it put us under pressure. But the effort our guys put in was nothing to complain about. On another day, when we score more runs, the pressure we put in the field will help us take wickets,” head coach further added.
Sunrisers will play against Punjab Kings on Saturday and look to spoil other parties to not let them reach the playoffs.
