Hyderabad: Amit Mishra, who was given the man-of-the-match award for his 3 for 19, which helped Sunrisers Hyderabad defend a small total of 126 runs against Pune Warriors on Friday, said that since they had a small total to defend, his team had no other options than go for the wickets.<\/p>\n
“I am very happy with the way I bowled, I went for wickets and got success. There was a little bit of turn in the pitch and so I went for the wickets. We were short of some runs and we had no other option but to go for wickets.”<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, happy with the way Sunrisers Hyderabad defended the total, Sunrisers’s skipper Kumar Sangakkara said that he was proud of his team but there was a lot of scope for improvement.<\/p>\n
Speaking during the post match presentation, Kumar Sangakkara said, “I think we spoke about in the dressing room about competing hard and scrapping through worked out in the middle. I am proud of the boys. We did well in the second half, but we were a few runs short while batting first. We can probably play a lot better than this and we need to keep our feet on the ground. It means a lot for this a new team. I would also like to thank the fans.”<\/p>\n
The losing captain, Angelo Mathews of Pune Warriors said that they were a bit slow to start the chase. “We started off brilliantly and the bowlers bowled well to keep them to less than 130. We were a bit slow to start the chase. Lessons are learnt and we need to move on. We have got 15 more games and I have the confidence in my team.”<\/p>\n
