We have had those games for the last three games. Everyone wants the win. The messaging is simple. We have to play good cricket for 40 overs. Whichever team plays good cricket, wins.
Everyone is hanging by a thread. Everything is been done for the team. Now, it’s game time. No matter who has injury or not, we have to give our best. Same team.”
GT captain Shubman Gill said, “We would have batted first. 40 overs of play has already happened. I don’t think it would change much. Unfortunately, I don’t think the referee heard the call from Riyan.
There is everything to play for. It is a ‘now or never’ situation. One change: Sai (Kishore) comes back.”
