Bowling became the reason for defeat
After the match, Punjab Kings spin bowling coach Sunil Joshi said, there was no shortage in batting, the batsmen are in excellent form. But bowling needs to be improved. Especially the number of dot balls in the middle overs will have to be increased.
We lost half the occasions, the same difference was. He further said, I would not say that the bowlers failed, wicket was good for batting. People want to see sixes, but we had a chance and we could not redeem it.
Captain Shreyas Iyer mistakes
After the match, captain Shreyas Iyer also admitted that the bowling did not remain as expected. He said, we have to improve bowling and work on the strategy again. Abhishek and Head’s opening partnership was fantastic, they did not give us any chance. Over rotation could also be improved.
