New Delhi: Despite ending to lose, Royal Challengers Bangalore Batter Tim David was named Player of the Match for his counter-Himle Punjab kings On Saturday.
To customize the difficult sports situation and RCB’s struggle, David said that he was open to contribute more if he was given a chance to bat in the order. He also talked about the need to take the pressure of performance and calculation risk in such situations.
“It didn’t seem so easy. I don’t know what to say. I think the boys have definitely conveyed it by the batting boys. Practice pitches have played in this way. Our coaching staff and management have formed a team for a reason. If I get a chance to bat, I will watch to contribute to my team.
After David’s 50 to 25 balls, RCB helped RCB recover to a total of 95 after a dramatic collapse, which lost seven wickets for just 42 runs in the rain-free 14 overs competition.
Josh Hazelwood’s 3/14 spectacular magic gave some hope towards the house, but this was not enough as Punjab Kings chased the target with five wickets and 11 balls in their hands.
