Sunrisers had a good start

After the match, Ishan Kishan said, “The way By Abhishek Sharma We started with the batting, thinking that we will score at least 250 runs, but that’s how it goes. We couldn’t add enough runs. On the other hand, Punjab batted very well early on.”

“I think our execution was not good. The most important thing in T20 cricket is to put our good balls in the right places. We fell short of that today. To be honest, I thought 219 was a good score. We had a good start and we thought we would get to 240, but 219 was not a bad score either. Especially when you have six or seven bowling options in your team,” he said. Our planning was wrong.”

Ishaan expressed his displeasure

Talking about Sunrisers’ planning for the game against Punjab, Ishan said, “Nowadays, there’s not much planning required during the match. You plan everything in advance. You know which batsman is going to hit which shot. But when you don’t bowl the right ball, you have no choice but to give away 10-20 extra runs in every over.”

He said, “Honestly, we don’t think too much. Cricket is a very simple game. You bat, you score and then the bowlers try to defend that score. But if you don’t bowl in the right place and you don’t plan well, you can’t stop the runs. Everything depends on your planning and executing it on the field.”
