Meanwhile, after the match-winning performance, the youngster from Moga was expectedly delighted. He said, “I wasn’t overwhelmed when Kohli hit me because a bowler always gets a second chance to come back. My first IPL wicket was Kohli paaji’s wicket and that was very special. It came out in a flow after that, your body opens up, you get confident and things fall in place.”
As for his batting, he said, “When I went into bat there was time to wait and see for an over or two. [KL] Rahul bhai was there at the other end to talk to me about the conditions and such.”
