Mitchell Starc After Becoming POTM:
His remarkable performance against SRH secured him the title of tonight’s Player of the Match. With an exceptional display on the field, he stood out among his peers, earning accolades for his skill and determination. As the game unfolded, his contributions became increasingly evident, showcasing his talent and commitment to the team’s success. Tonight, he proved himself as a standout player deserving of recognition and praise.
Mitchell Starc said, “ We know how important the powerplay is. These were the two sides who have dominated in the powerplay with the bat. We needed to pick early wickets and get into their middle-order. The way Head and Abhishek have been playing thoughout the tournament, they like width and free their arms. We just tried to swing the ball and not provide them width. Bowl stump to stump and tried the hard length. The spinners were effective and the whole bowling department was great.”
He added, “ Got lucky I guess (on taking Head’s wicket), was nice to see his back early, not always the case. We have been playing against each other in recent times. They (Arora and Harshit) are exciting to watch and are talented, they are skillful. It’s good to see how hard they train. Harshit has been phenomenal this year. Our bowling attack has been great, it’s hard to single anyone out. As an older and overseas player, it’s good to see. No doubt they’ll take many wickets in the IPL and for India as well.”
