Here’s What Sai Sudharsan Said During Min-Innings Break
“I am trying to time the ball rather than hitting and smacking it. I am able to get the results for that. We are not thinking about not losing the wicket. We are trying to keep the strike rate up and react. The way we are playing, it is helping our team to get good scores.”
“The wicket was a bit slow and low when we started. The way Shubman and me showed the intent, we had a good powerplay which helped us put a good total in the end. Even in the first timeout we had a conversation about scoring a lot of runs. We have put quite enough score. The bowlers will do a great job today.”
