Rishabh Pant Awarded Man Of The Match Award In DC Vs GT Match
Delhi Capitals have now recorded 3 wins in their last 4 matches and have given their IPL 2024 campaign a much-needed fresh element of surivival as the side are now well in contention of breaking into the Top 4. Rishabh Pant has been instrumental for his side and is leading from the front, and with an unbeaten 88 against GT, the wicketkeeper batsman was awarded the Man of the Match award and the player had the following to say in the post-match presentation ceremony, as reported by Crex:
"I think we have seen it before that Nortje has struggled a bit in the past. He has had a tough time in the death overs. T20 is a funny game. The ball was coming nicely onto the bat after 14-15 overs. The thinking process is that when a bowler is having a nice day, then you should back that bowler (Rasikh Salam). We need to follow our instincts. Sometimes, it comes off, and sometimes it doesn't. I guess I was spot on tonight. Happy that it came off," said Rishabh Pant.
"At 44/3, we (Axar and Pant) had a simple conversation. The only conversation between Axar and me was to keep going and target their main spinners. Each and every day, I feel better. I give my 100%. It takes some time sometimes. Every hour, I just love being on the field. I think the first six in the match give me confidence in a game. The more time I spend in the centre, the better I feel. Just try to do my best on the field," he added.
