This is a very good news race, very close; I’m very pleased with what the kids did. The aim was to get off to a good start but unfortunately I fell back but by the end of the over we were on 60 runs and maintained the partnership and Shashank came on and bowled really well.
The way Shashank came in and hit a six was magnificent, the way he bowled looked effortless. Seven started and is now showing good character. He played in IPL after a long time and played very well. I would also like to mention Ashutosh, who came in under pressure and did a good job,” Dhawan said in his post-match comments.
After yesterday’s win, PBKS sit fifth on points in the 2024 IPL standings with 4 points. Gujarat Titans are placed sixth with four points.
