"Disappointed - that's completely natural. Have lost plenty of finals in my career, unfortunately," said Jos Buttler in a post-match presentation.
However, he said that he had surpassed his own expectations in the season, becoming the second-most runs scorer in an edition in the history of the tournament.
"Exceeded all my expectations apart from today - the trophy we really wanted. Disappointed with that. Big congratulations to Hardik and team. Deserving champions. My goals are to play my role for the team and try and react on the day regarding what the game is asking me to do. In good teams you have a lot of trust in everyone. We have huge trust in everyone in our team. Very grateful for the opportunity to play today," Buttler said.
