What did captain Faf du Plessis say after the first win?
Faf du Plessis while talking said, “The way we did, it was a good start. Siraj did well in the power play and set the tone. Our bowlers stuck to the plan during the innings. Definitely needs improvement in the last 2-3 overs. And that second innings, if you want to know how to chase, this is how you do it. It was not easy to play if you took pace off the ball and there was something for the spinners but as a batsman if you get into good position you can score runs.”
Heart winning talk for King Kohli
The RCB captain further said, “I am playing here as a domestic player for the first time and it is a special player, especially batting with Virat Kohli. Energy comes out of it. You have to be with the youth, I still work hard so that I can roam around like in the young days. The confidence it gives, we are all confident players. This start will be huge for us as a team.
