Player of the Match
Harpreet Brar | Punjab Kings
I am feeling really good. I would like to dedicate this award to my wife as it is my first after marriage. We practice a lot against the left handers, Ponting Sir has told us that a leftie can get a leftie out. I have worked on that, I knew they would come after me but I backed to bowl to my strengths.
The way the wicket was playing and they were batting, the plan was to not give a boundary or give them an easy balls. I have been with Sunil (Joshi) Sir for a long time, I have learned a lot, he’s thought me on how to use the crease, how to read the batter and the wicket.
After Chahal’s arrival I thought it would be easy to bowl with him, I didn’t get an opportunity at the start but cricket is a funny game, I always thought once I get an opportunity I will grab it.
