Iyer said in the award ceremony after the match, 'We are getting experience of all kinds of conditions. In this match also we stuck to our strategy. We were going according to our plan. Marco (Janssen) was able to get a bounce. The rest of the bowlers supported him.'

 

He said, 'We did not know about this pitch, how it would behave. Our bowlers adapted themselves to the conditions.' Praising Nehal Vadhera, who played an unbeaten innings of 33 runs while chasing the target, he said, 'Nehal performed brilliantly today. It is good to have a batsman like him in the team.'

 

What did the RCB captain say?

 

At the same time, RCB captain Rajat Patidar said, 'Initially the ball was coming intermittently and the ball was coming on the bat at two speeds on the wicket, but we could have done much better as a batting unit. Partnerships are important and we have lost wickets at quick intervals and this is a big lesson for us.

 

On ousting Padikkal, Rajat said, 'We had to make this change due to the circumstances. The wicket was not that bad. It was undercover for a long time. This helped their bowlers. Credit goes to them. Whatever the wicket, we have to bat well and score a winning score.'

 

Rajat said, 'The bowling unit is doing quite well, this is a big positive aspect. The batsmen have played with passion, it is pleasing. We can correct some of our mistakes in the batting unit.'
