An elated Hardik gave the full credit to his entire team for this outstanding show against a tough RCB side.
“Always good to win. The way we have won – it’s quite impressive. Impact player has given the opportunity to use an extra bowler if required. It gives me a cushion as well. The way Ro and Kishan batted, giving the platform, it was important for us to finish it early. We didn’t speak about it. That’s the beauty of this team, players know what to do,” Hardik said at the post-match interaction.
Hardik also lauded Bumrah for his superb bowling display and Surya for his breathtaking shots.
“Blessed to have Bumrah in my side. He does it over and over again. He practices a lot. The amount of experience and confidence he has is tremendous. (Surya) I did tell him when he scored the fifty that welcome back. I’ve been the opposition captain as well against him, it’s tough to put a field for him. Whatever the situation requires – last game I had to take some time, and this game’s scenario was different,” Hardik added.<\/div>\n
