“The last game it did not come off but today I made sure I did. I have been in this situation where I have taken the role of scoring 12-ball 30. It is difficult but now at four I can control the game,” said Pandya in the post-match presentation.

In the previous match, Pandya scored 50 runs off 42 balls but in this match, he batted brilliantly to take his team from 15/2 to 192/4 by the end of 20 overs scoring an unbeaten 87. En route to his brilliant performance with the bat he even struggled a bit but still batted till the very end. His superlative performance helped him bag the ‘Player of the Match’ award.

“Pretty special. A lot of hard work for me tonight. It was just cramps, nothing serious. I am not used to batting this long. It gives me a lot of time. I can calculate and take risks, ” said Hardik Pandya.
