Rajat Patidar gave credit for the victory not to Hazlewood but to this player

After the spectacular victory against Delhi Capitals, Rajat Patidar gave full credit for this victory to his fast bowlers. Rajat Patidar praised Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood and called them world class bowlers. After RCB’s victory, captain Rajat Patidar said that

“Absolutely, but I think I was also surprised by the behavior of the wicket and full credit goes to the bowlers, the way they bowled, especially in the powerplay, Hazlewood and Bhuvi. I think the way they bowled in those areas and got a bit of swing early on, it was fantastic to watch.”

RCB fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar got more swing than usual in the beginning, due to which he appeared beyond the understanding of Delhi Capitals batsmen, talking about this, team captain Rajat Patidar said that

“I think the swing was normal and the good thing was that we got early wickets and that is why we were ahead in the match.”

Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood bowled 3-3 overs continuously for RCB, in such a situation, Rajat Patidar was asked why he did not think of calling any other player on the field in their place after making them both 4-4 overs continuously. On this Rajat Patidar said that

“No, no. I think I… We had already planned that if we got early wickets, we would take three overs each from each bowler and see how the wicket behaved and then the way Suyyash and Sheppy bowled, I think Suyyash also bowled, I think they got a lot of spin, but I think the way they bowled stump to stump, it was really good to see.”

Rajat Patidar told the mantra of RCB’s continuous victory

RCB team has played 8 matches so far, during which they had to face defeat in only 2 matches. Although the RCB team has won consecutively in the last 2 matches, team captain Rajat Patidar said that

“Yeah, it is very important to follow our routine because you know there is a long way to go, but I think we are taking one match at a time and the positive thing is, as I said in the last match, different players are coming forward and performing well for the team, I think that is a good sign for us.”

Rajat Patidar has described both his fast bowlers Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar as world class. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is currently leading in the race for Purple Cup. Regarding this, Rajat Patidar said that

“Of course, I think if you are playing T20 cricket on a flat pitch, you should have a good bowling unit. That’s why, because only the bowlers can win you the championship.”
