We were very much in the game before rain says Gambhir
IPL 2018
Jaipur, April 12 (CRICKETNMORE) - Rajasthan Royals beat Delhi Daredevils in rain-affected tie at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Wednesday. Delhi's skipper Gautam Gambhir was very upset with the result and blames rain for the result.
During the post match presentation ceremony, he said,"We were very much in the game. It was a beautiful wicket to bat on, then 150-odd for 5 in 18 overs, we thought we could contain them to 170 and it was chaseable, especially with dew coming in later on. We were very much happy with the first innings. But then in 6 overs, 71 was tough. We had to go from ball one."
"Obviously with these sort of games, things could go either way. Just 2 overs of Powerplay, it's very difficult. If it was a 20-over game, it would've been much easier to chase," he added.
