00:00To be honest, we've been playing good cricket here, it's just that the result has not gone away.
00:05In the dugout, there's a lot of calmness with Rahul being there.
00:09I don't think anybody, everybody has played enough cricket in that dugout to know
00:15that one should not panic and take it as it comes.
00:19But unfortunately, losing by two runs this game and the previous game with the super-over,
00:24yes, it's been hard, but that's the way the game goes.
00:28T20 is a format where a lot of risk is involved, you make a lot of mistakes,
00:34and our effort is to minimize those mistakes.
00:37I think when we had a partnership going, we could have finished it a couple of overs itself.
00:43But Avesh bowled that good over again, so we could have finished it.
00:48But again, we are absolutely calm, composed about it, and we just look forward for the next game.
00:54I think that the last over, which was a little expensive over for Sandeep Sharma,
01:06that doesn't mean that I can take anything away from Sandeep Sharma, because he's a fabulous bowler,
01:15and always bowled those important and tough overs.
01:20Definitely, we had less than 20 runs, maybe 10-15 runs.
01:24But I think we were set to chase that target, and the batters were,
01:30Jaiswal and Vaebhav had a good opening, and that was just continuing with Riyan and Yashasvi.
01:39But yeah, these things happen in T20 format, we have to accept it and move on.
01:45Sajjeev Sharma has continued in the second match.
01:50The second one, Vaebhav, Suryavanshi.
01:53Do you think that you have late debut?
01:56No, I don't think, because when the bright opportunity was standing,
02:02I think that the chance was important.
02:06Today was a day where he was good at the net, his preparation was good at the net,
02:11and obviously we missed Sanju.
02:14So he created an opportunity, and he made a good advantage of the opportunity,
02:20and I think he batted beautifully.
02:28No, I don't think any team wins from one player.
02:33I'll be honest with you, it is a team game.
02:35In the previous match, he also had two overs,
02:38in a very small run, in a 5-7 run.
02:41So generally, we forget those important overs,
02:44and we keep emphasizing on overs which he has not bowled well.
02:46But I think for us, he is a 100% giver,
02:50and the team backs him, everybody backs him.
02:53It's not easy to go there and perform day in and day out with the same intensity.
02:58But I just feel, I think we are a unit,
03:01things are not going away, the results are not going away.
03:04But I feel it's a young side,
03:07and I'm sure everybody is hurting,
03:09and they will learn from their mistakes.
03:11Hi Sai, this is Arithya from beyond.
03:13Sai, can you just reflect upon the two close finishes that we have?
03:17Is there any miscommunication,
03:19because the messages aren't being passed on right?
03:23Because you were in a commanding position in both the matches,
03:26still you were on the losing side.
03:28So, what are your thoughts?
03:30Are you able to not finish any of miscommunication in any regards?
03:34Just one thing I can say, the clarity with us,
03:37with the support staff and the players,
03:39and in the dressing room is absolutely the best I have seen.
03:42Rahul is very clear about whatever the plans are, the game plans are.
03:46It's just that on that particular day, the execution from players didn't happen.
03:51And it was just in that last over, things didn't go away.
03:55So, because most of the time we were in the game,
03:57and we were playing good cricket.
03:59So, I just feel that we just didn't get over that finishing line.
04:04Just to follow up, Sanju Samson, will he be fit for next match?
04:07Will he be happy?
04:08I think they will assess the situation and will let us know.
04:12Sairaj, this is Suhas from Times of India.
04:15Despite the loss, close loss,
04:17are you satisfied with the performance of Vaibo Sumnevanshi,
04:21who made a sensational debut?
04:23And unfortunately, he was given a runoff or a stomp out.
04:27It appeared that his foot was landed.
04:31What are your thoughts on Vaibo Sumnevanshi?
04:33No, I think the dismissal is purely the umpire's call.
04:36We can't say anything and we have to respect that.
04:39But I just feel he's a great kid with a really good head on his shoulders.
04:46I think he's got a game which is almost 360 degrees.
04:50He's courageous and he's brave in the way you obviously saw.
04:55The approach at that age is also very dominating and he wants to play shots.
05:00And he doesn't really feel that he is playing against some particular bowler
05:04or he just faces the ball.
05:06His theory is watch the ball and hit the ball.
05:09Hi, I said just a follow-up.
05:11You said obviously the team has been playing good cricket.
05:14But in the end, in a tournament like the IPL, every point matters and all that.
05:18But being an arspin who's been both following yourself on the coach,
05:23you and Shin got nothing more closely with the bowlers.
05:27And despite that, death over has been a major concern through the season.
05:33Could you identify what's going on?
05:35Why is the execution not being happening?
05:37If it's batting or bowling, you need partnerships.
05:42I think we may be lacking at times with the bowling partnerships.
05:48And death over is something which is so hard for all the bowlers in this format.
05:54Not only ours but the way other bowlers also have been trying to execute to the best of their ability.
06:01But it is a tough time for any bowler to bowl.
06:04But every game we have a plan.
06:06Every game we try to see how a bowler can go there and express himself and give his best.
06:13That's all I think we can give and that's what the process has been.
06:16We've been focusing on the process.
06:18Again, the results which is not in our control, has not been going our way.
06:23But again, we've got a few games left.
06:25We never know, you know, we can just get on a winning streak and cover up these couple of games.
