Delhi: Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Pat Cummins reacted to his team's performance after a 80 -run defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders. He said that the target could have been achieved, but the batsmen did not choose the right choice and the team could not perform better on the field either. Chasing the target of SRH 200 runs, he was all out for 120 runs in 16.4 overs.
What did Pat Cummins say?
After the match, Cummins said, “This is not the right time. This score could have been chased, the wicket was also good, but we lost many opportunities and finally left behind the target. We have to accept the reality. This is the third time when we could not do well. We have to think whether we could choose some more options. We will discuss whether we could do something different, but we have to pay attention to the next match, which will be important for us. “
Where was the mistake in the match?
The captain said that the biggest mistake was in fielding. “Our bowling was not so bad, but we should have caught some catches and the opposition team should have stopped in advance.”
Experienced spinner Adam Zampa did not get a place in the team in the match. To this, he said, “We put only three overs spin, because we were not getting any special help from the pitch. That is why we did not feed Jampa.”
