Here’s what Sai Sudharsan said after winning Player of the Match award:
“It feels really great to contribute for the team and make the team win. There’s a bit of joy when you finish games for the team so I feel I’ve missed quite a bit times in the previous games so I think the break which we got, I was thinking on that a bit more and maybe it paid off today.”
“[What pleased you most?] They bowled really well from 7-10 overs. The momentum went down a bit. We took the game deeper. We were not desperate to take a lot of chances and we were cool and calm enough to take the game deeper and we knew 2 or 3 big overs will seal the game for us. Previous games I took chances there and got out so I was aware enough to take the game deeper at that point of time and take right matchups and chances.”
“[Learning from previous games] I’ve started to believe a bit more and from my mindset point of view, belief has gotten better on myself too. Take the game deeper, win games for the team and explore my batting. I don’t think there’s a lot of changes in my batting as such. Mentally I am bit more free and more expressive.”
