"First of all, I would like to thank the management for giving me this opportunity, and I'm lucky enough that I was able to be on the winning side. So the mindset is always that if things are not in your hand, you just try to be better in each and every practice session. I worked a lot of time with Munaf (Patel, DC bowling coach, sir).

"I worked on my bowling a lot, and I worked on my range-hitting and stuff like that with our batting coach, and it was fun, and I was happy if I was able to contribute to the team. I would like to say I’m 100% bowler, 100% batsman,' Tiwari said after the win.

The all-rounder arrived with a bat at a crunch phase of DC's chase and finished unbeaten on 18 off 8, including two fours and a six, which helped DC achieve the highest successful T20 chase (by any team) in Dharamshala.

"I worked on my bowling a lot, and I worked on my range-hitting and stuff like that with our batting coach, and it was fun, and I was happy if I was able to contribute to the team. I would like to say I’m 100% bowler, 100% batsman,' Tiwari said after the win.
