Player of the Match
Finn Allen | Kolkata Knight Riders
Oh, I think, you know, what I’ve been working on is trying to have more strings to my bow. We obviously lost a couple of early wickets, so I just tried to have a bit of responsibility and get a win on the board for the boys. (Shifting gears?) I mean, like I said, I just tried to knuckle down early.
It was still a little bit challenging at the start, Axar bowled really well and restricted us. So like I said, just try to get in strong positions and bat deep. (About his six hitting) I think that’s the model I’ve been trying to do with my batting, I guess.
If it’s not easy, stay in there, working with Watto (Watson) and Abhishek (Nayar) as well. You know, just trying to give myself a chance. I feel like I’ve got a few starts and it’s been pretty frustrating, but here nice to, I guess, have a little bit of personal success.
