Thoughts on the win

Tamil Thalaivas captain Arjun Deshwal opened up about his thoughts on the game and said, “There was no pressure at all because the league has just started, and all the teams are moving up and down in the table. We lost both matches due to our mistakes.”

“But Coach Sahab told us to leave all our mistakes in Vizag itself. We have come with the mindset that we have to perform very well. So today the whole team played according to the plan that they had come up with,” he added.

Thoughts on the Bengaluru Bulls

Arjun Deshwal spoke about the Bengaluru Bulls ahead of their next game and said, “Their team is new and they have won the last three matches, including today. So, they are high on confidence. Today, our team did exactly what they were told. I am happy with the team’s performance. Now we will face Bengaluru Bulls on the 16th. So we will see ours and theirs mistakes, and only time will tell what happens.”
