He said, “Our batting was very bad and now we have to move ahead and come back strongly. This pitch was fine because if you look at some of the batsmen, they got out through their own mistakes and the pitch had nothing to do with it. I would say that the players chose bad shots due to which they lost their wickets.”
Gill further said, “If the opposition team is chasing 89 runs, then that team will always remain in the match until a player takes a hat-trick twice. This is the halfway point of the season for us and during this period we have won 3 matches. We will try to win 5 or 6 out of the coming 7 matches.”
Gill's bat did not work against DC and he was out after scoring 8 runs in 6 balls. As soon as he was out, other players of the team could not stay on the field for long and the result was that the team was all out for 89 runs in 17.3 overs. After this, while chasing the target, Delhi team achieved it in 8.5 overs and won the match by 6 wickets. DC has also registered the biggest win in its IPL history in this match.
