KL Rahul the skipper of Lucknow is the Player of the Match. He says that he tries to stay in the moment and he tries to play the situation, and he does what the team wants him to do, fingers crossed that he continues his good form. Adds that the first thought he had was to just get bat on ball and get off the mark, he wanted to just get the single away, then he is lucky to on till the end. Mentions that he tries to assess the pitch and the conditions before and he does only what the situation asks him to do he just trying to do the best of his ability. Says that the teams can defend well, or do well in the Powerplay, or bowl well at the death have done well in the tournament and he likes having all-rounders in the team, says that he has options in the middle and it gives them the depth.
Stay tuned for the presentation...
Krunal Pandya is down for a chat. He feels great as it was a collective effort from the team with the perfect plan. Adds that Rahul's knock was a terrific one and the pitch was stopping a bit and he tried to bowl slower balls and varied the pace. Adds that the bowlers executed the plan really well and this will boost the confidence. On Kieron Pollard's wicket, he thanked God that he took his wicket as Pollard would have been chirping every day that he took his wicket. Mentions that the agenda is to win the game and improve and trust the process.
Rohit Sharma the skipper of Mumbai, says it was a good pitch to bat on and it should have been chased down but Lucknow defended well. Adds that they should have had a string of partnerships but some irresponsible shot, including his, has held them down. Tells that they haven't batted well enough and the middle order needs to take responsibility as well, someone should anchor the innings and play the longer innings and that is hurting them. On Tim David, he says that it has been discussed but there are a lot of players and they try to give enough games to the players and settle the XI. They are trying not to make many changes, there are discussions anyways but he feels that whoever plays needs enough time to settle in.
After a lone fight in the first innings from KL Rahul, it's been a relatively collective bowling performance from Lucknow. They were disciplined with their bowling and were rewarded well for the same. They might have not grabbed early wickets but they did well to pick up wickets in a cluster post the Powerplay which put Mumbai under immense pressure. All the bowlers got a wicket at least. Except, Dushmantha Chameera, but he was excellent he gave away just 14 runs in his spell of 4 overs. Krunal Pandya was the leader of the pack he picked up 3 wickets in his spell. A clinical show from Lucknow at the end they were calm, composed, and have got over the line with ease.
Mumbai got off to a decent start with Rohit Sharma striking the ball well, while Ishan Kishan was struggling to get going. It was good for them till the Powerplay. In the next 6 overs, they lost four wickets which took the momentum away from them completely. Tilak Varma once again played a crucial knock and gave them a slight ray of hope but he too perished. There were no partnerships in this innings from Mumbai which was the issue for them. It's the same issue for Mumbai that goes on. They did bowl well today, but their batting once again has been disappointing.
A convincing victory for Lucknow at the end! After losing their previous game, they are back on the winning track. With this victory, Lucknow have grabbed a total of 10 points and they have moved into the top four. While the drought in Mumbai's camp continues, eight in eight for them now.
