Mitchell Marsh admires Nicholas Pooran’s ability to smash balls into the stands and is grateful to be on the same team as him rather than facing him as an opponent. Pooran’s explosive innings of 70 off 26 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad impressed Marsh, who also contributed with 52 runs. The duo has been in fine form, scoring half-centuries in their opening game and forming a strong partnership in both matches.
Marsh described Pooran’s batting as “fascinating” and expressed his admiration for his teammate. He praised the decision to chase in the match, stating that it was the right approach on the pitch. Marsh also commended young bowler Prince Yadav for his control and performance against Hyderabad’s star-studded batting line-up.
Shardul Thakur was awarded the Player of The Match for his four wickets, and Marsh lauded his outstanding performance. He highlighted the evolution of the game, where a score of 190 is now considered a good bowling effort. Marsh expressed hope for a 300-run total in the IPL season, but not against his team.
Overall, Marsh was proud of his team’s performance and credited their bowling unit for executing their plans effectively. He emphasized the importance of depth in a long tournament like the IPL and praised the team’s all-round effort in the match.
