Laughs that conversations with Hetmyer are funny. Says that it's just about have you eaten, have you slept well and is he happy, that's it.

Adds that even with 20/3 the teams still believed they could get over the line if they played to their potential. Mentions, sending Stoinis down the order was always the plan.

Mentions, their death bowling has really stood out in the past games. Says, the bowler can have an off day and as a team, they will just learn from it and try to be better next time around.

Stick around for the interviews....

You just can't write a script for such an over. You just dream of it - That is what Alan Wilkins described on-air after watching the first over of Trent Boult as he took the matter into his own hands and got KL Rahul and Krishnappa Gowtham in the first over itself bowling two lovely inswinging deliveries. If that wasn't enough Prasidh Krishna got a wicket as well later to put Rajasthan completely on top. Their bowlers maintained the pressure throughout and never let Lucknow to get away with the game. Yuzvendra Chahal took a total of 4 wickets in the match and things seemed to be done and dusted but things got pretty close towards the end as 15 runs were needed off the last over. However, the debutant Kuldeep Sen kept his calm and defended it in the end. Sensational bowling performance from Rajasthan and they have got another 2 important points in their bag.

Lucknow had a below-par total to chase but had the worst of starts as KL Rahul and Krishnappa Gowtham departed for ducks and Jason Holder got out for a timid score as well inside the Powerplay itself. They were put under tremendous pressure and it was up to Quinton de Kock and Deepak Hooda to bail them out of the situation but it wasn't to be. None of their batters seemed to be in their elements and couldn't play a breezy inning which was the need of the hour for Lucknow except for Marcus Stoinis who took the game pretty deep and batted amazingly well as he almost took his team over the line but in the end, lost the game by just 3 runs. A positive thing for them to take though as they have paid big bucks for Marcus Stoinis in the auction and playing his first game this season, he showed great signs and batted very positively.

What a game of cricket! Absolute thriller! Pretty sure everyone watching the game were biting their nails till the last ball. Rajasthan needed something special from their bowlers after managing to get just 165 on a Wankhede pitch and their bowlers didn't disappoint them. Kuldeep Sen did absoultely well to defend 15 runs off the last over especially after Prasidh Krishna conceding 19 runs in the peunultimate over. Their bowlers rose to the occasion and stepped up handing them the win. Credit to Marcus Stoinis though who playing a fabulous knock at the end. If Krunal Pandya had taken that catch of Hetmyer when he was on 14, things might have ended differently for them but nevertheless, they ended up on the wrong side and would be looking to make amends in the next game.
