Speaker A
Um, I think it's your best IPL knock so far. From what I've seen, you played a lot of knocks under pressure, but I think tonight was special.
00:30
Speaker A
Okay guys, I'm going to keep it short. I'm going to wrap it up tonight. Thanks, Andy, for giving me a chance to do something in the game today.
00:38
Speaker A
But, um, guys, look, if you want to win multi-team competitions, we need a game like that. We need to scrap for a win. We need to fight hard, and we know the feeling in the group. But just
00:49
Speaker A
talking about the game, how we started off. I think again Buhie Hoff was brilliant in the power play. Move your execution, your skills, absolutely world class. I think it was his sixth three-wicket haul this season
01:09
Speaker A
in 11 games, which is crazy. Look, the good thing is that whatever I'm doing or trying to do, it's happening. And I think it's all about confidence. When you start IPL, you go through a couple of good matches, then
01:36
Speaker A
your confidence goes up. And I think, yes, I don't want to jinx it, but whatever I'm trying to do, it's happening. Its execution is spot on.
01:47
Speaker A
Getting wickets and, of course, getting help from fielders to catch those crucial catches. So here, I mean, things are going well. The way you bowled tonight was top-notch, and you showed us what you can do when you feel confident with the ball in hand
02:02
Speaker A
and you can hit your areas. You have the skill, and we all back you to execute your skills every time. So well done on that.
02:19
Speaker A
KP always, you know, he can bank on you under pressure or any kind of situation.
02:24
Speaker A
Again, brilliant with the ball. Su did his job as well. Rasik was great too.
02:34
Speaker A
With the bat, we didn't get off to the best start. We know that. But like the last game, we've had two games where we haven't had the best starts, but last game Rajat stepped up, along with KP
02:45
Speaker A
contributing. TD made, you know, an impact in the last game. This game around, again, Beth stuck in, got us an important partnership with KP, so that contribution was crucial for us to chase the score down. So well done on your application
03:00
Speaker A
as well, KP. I think it's your best IPL knock so far. From what I've seen, you played a lot of knocks under pressure, but I think tonight was special. You're struggling with bouncing balls hitting you, you know, keeping low, bouncing
03:14
Speaker A
up, but you never made an excuse. You just showed us how to grind, how to stay in there, find a solution, find a way. And even when you were cramping, those two sixes were actually the difference in the game where you could have easily
03:28
Speaker A
said, I can't carry on. But, you know, you found the strength to carry on for the team. So, we can take a lot of inspiration from that.
03:34
Speaker A
I think it was amazing. It was a match-winning knock for us. The way he was cramping but still batting, hitting sixes, and more than hitting sixes, what was very nice to see is that he played
03:45
Speaker A
the situation. He took few balls. He picked his bowlers, and of course the way he batted with Beth, the way they talked, we can literally sense from outside that they have some purpose. They batted a few overs and then they went in the last few
03:58
Speaker A
overs. So yes, it was amazing to see. I think the most important moment in the game was Mr.
04:09
Speaker A
David's six over. Honestly, the six Buy hit was the best shot of the game, hands down. And on the icing on the cake is the situation we were in, right? We needed three balls, eight, and Bui went
04:34
Speaker A
there. I mean, we all know how great Bu is with the ball, but today we saw how amazing he is with the bat also, right? So I guess that six gave us the two points, I'll say. So that was an amazing hit.
04:46
Speaker A
You know, being a bowler, when you do something like this, it was just one six, but I enjoyed that the most, and that helped in the winning cause. So it was more memorable for me for sure.
04:57
Speaker A
We had no right to lose. Five overs to go, like we had no right to win, and then we ended up winning. So I think this win is going to boost our confidence, and then we come back in
05:06
Speaker A
what, two days, three days' time, and we hunt those two points again. On to the next one, boys. Thanks.
05:20
Speaker A
Heat.
