Player of the Match
Jacob Duffy | Royal Challengers Bengaluru
Awesome. Have heard a lot of good things about Bangalore and RCB. Hell of a way to start the campaign. Just keeping the big fella’s seat warm (talking about Hazlewood). We have identified that the new ball does a little bit in Bangalore. We talk a lot about things and what works here. Slightly different wicket. Haven’t seen a wicket with that kind of bounce in the last couple of months here. While the ball’s hard and new here, it’s the best time to bowl.
