In the post-match presentation, KL Rahul who was adjudged as the player of the match for an unbeaten 103 said: “It was a special day and a special hundred.” The LSG captain added he wasn’t among the runs earlier but the pitch today was good so he made the most of it.
“The day games without dew are different, the bowlers were really clear and we need to be clear with the plans. That’s the takeaway from our wins. The batters need to settle in and not collapse,” KL Rahul said.
Talking about the areas of improvement, KL said: “The batters haven’t done well in the powerplay at times. Keeping the opposition quiet early in their innings would help. I don’t look at oppositions differently, they are a champion side that’s competitive. But I don’t do much different.”
