Rajasthan Royals defeated Kings XI Punjab by 7 wickets in a match played on Friday in IPL-13. This is Rajasthan's second consecutive win. Earlier, Rajasthan had also defeated last year's winner and first-placed Mumbai Indians by eight wickets in this season's point table. Rajasthan now has to play the last match of the league with Kolkata Knight Riders.
After the victory of Punjab, Captain Smith said - We have to put full strength in the next match to stay in the playoffs. So that the match is in our favor. This season has been very volatile for us. It would have been much better had we been successful in winning a few more matches during the tournament. We are playing better than the last few matches.
Praise for batsmen
He said - Sanju Samson's run-out for 48 against Punjab was disappointing. But you should take a positive event. After the break of five days, Jas Butler took good advantage of the opportunity. This is a good sign for us. Sanju Samson batted well at the start of the tournament. He did not do well in the middle matches. But it happens in T20 cricket. It is a process, it must be trusted. Ben Stokes is the star player of our team. He took two wickets with 50 runs scored. Stokes's shot is better. He can play shots in every direction. He also does bowling better. He is the best player in the world.
What did Stokes say-
Stokes, who was the man of the match, said - With the same mentality he played against Mumbai, Kings XI also came on the field against Punjab. Even in the situation we are in, we have nothing to lose. Hitting sixes is always better.
Tewatia said - there has been improvement in fielding
Rahul Tewatiya said - In the match against Punjab Kings XI, there was a do-die situation. In this, we had to give 100 percent. The way Joffra started. This gave us the strength to do better. Our batsmen are now taking responsibility. We used to lose wickets in the power play. But now it is not so. During the practice, we focused on fielding. Ben Stokes took better catches. He is a better fielder of our team. As far as catching my catches. I was standing at the right place on the boundary. I jumped at the right time. Our middle order has strengthened. Because the top order batsmen are doing better. Stokes is giving us a better start. This thing is positive for us.
