00:19 What was your conversation with Duredas? Because he said that, initially he said to you that, you know, he was going to play his game.
00:26 He wanted to back his shots. What's the conversation like?
00:32 Yeah, pretty much that. I mean, yeah, he's shown what a world-class performer, the best in the world when he goes like that.
00:40 So for me, it's just about holding the game there and supporting him. He was the star and let him play his game.
00:49 For me, if he was to get out, it's about taking the game deep on a pitch that offered some assistance to the bowlers.
00:55 So, yeah, it was just about that clarity. Let him go and play his game. He can win a game, as we saw, in the space of five overs.
01:03 So, yeah, Baz always kind of backs each individual to do that.
01:08 And when you've got a world-class performer like that, yeah, you see the destruction he can cause.
01:13 Wanted to check, wanted your comment on the brilliant catch of Tim Sowdy. Can you elaborate for us, explain for us?
01:22 Yeah, not bad for an old bloke. That was a great catch, moved really well.
01:27 And actually, it was probably on the other side of the ground.
01:31 So, yeah, he covered a lot of ground and moments like that can really change the game because 10, 15 extra runs there at the end.
01:40 And if Kings had batted for the rest of their innings, you know what? It could have changed the game, like I said.
01:46 So, yeah, phenomenal catch by the big man. He's got great hands. So, yeah, does what he does well.
01:54 How good was the bowling? We saw that in the power plays and right to the match. How has he been doing, I mean, overall in the practice and everything?
02:02 Yeah, the match has been fantastic. Obviously, at Delhi last year, myself, him and Ajinkya didn't get a game.
02:10 But he's been he's shown what a class performer he's been over the years, certainly for India and Kolkata previously.
02:16 So bowling was really lovely pace, swinging the ball and nipping the ball.
02:23 And yeah, these wickets have been assisting the Seema friendly bowlers, certainly early, but he's made the most out of it.
02:31 It's such a difference when you get wickets in the power play. It really does set up the game for us.
02:37 And yeah, that's been a fundamental part throughout all the games, certainly the ones I've watched on TV as well.
02:42 Early wickets have really hurt sides.
02:45 And yeah, it's a huge thing having him and the other bowling options early in the innings.
