Ravi Bishnoi (24), Avesh Khan (38) and Andrew Tye (41) were the two wickets for the Super Giants.
After the match, Rahul said, “Bishnoi showed great passion and came back despite a wet ball after a poor performance in the last match. I have seen some videos of Badoni and you will see only good shots. He batted brilliantly. He is a player playing in 360 degrees. Great discovery in limited overs cricket for India.
He said, ‘In this situation you can wait for one or two overs. Take advantage of the power play and take advantage of the right and left hand pair. De Kok is in good form, he batted brilliantly. Lewis has worked hard on his batting, his timing is getting better. The good performance of all these players shows the happiness on the face of the captain.
At the same time, Super Kings skipper Ravindra Jadeja admitted after the match that he suffered from poor fielding. The Super Kings dropped catches for both Rahul and De Kok. “We had a great start but to win the match you have to catch catches while fielding,” Jadeja said. We could have taken advantage of those opportunities. There was a lot of mist today and the ball was not in hand. Jadeja suggested to his management that we have to practice with wet balls. Praising the batsmen, he said, “The top six batsmen performed brilliantly, the wicket was good for batting. As a bowling unit, we have to implement the plan.
