Ashu pa got here in and advised me to hold the sport for 3 overs, if it is in your zone hit it, if not knock it round for singles, we will make up the runs ultimately as a result of we’ve got the firepower to try this. That’s what me and Miller spoke about and it paid off. There was an effort to truly to get extra runs within the center overs.
“In our meeting, Hardik made it very clear that if we go after their main bowlers, which was Piyush Chawla, then we can get more runs on the board and then the rest of the bowlers will be under pressure.

I’m sure our bowlers will do it,” he stated.
