Player of the Match
Nicholas Pooran | MI Emirates
It is the nature of the game. I have been playing T20s for a long time. I had to get the job done and had to be there till the end. I am more experienced now. I know what’s required. The key is to trust yourself.
You need to absorb pressure. This one is for Polly(Pollard). We are starting to get there. We are moving to the right direction. We would want to get better. We want to rectify our mistakes. The group has been challenged.
We are trying to execute the plan to the best of our abilities. I am going to embrace what is required of me. The guys have been supportive. It is about helping each other to grow. This has to be one of my favourite grounds to play on.
