\u201cA win is always a win, and the feeling is always fantastic. Even though we couldn't make it to the playoffs, finishing the tournament with a victory is very special for us. It keeps the team's morale high. The hard work we put in throughout the tournament showed on the field today. I am extremely proud of how our young players took responsibility and played great cricket under pressure. We will learn from our shortcomings, but ending the season on a positive note gives us fresh confidence for the upcoming domestic season and the next DPL,\u201d Simarjeet said after the match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Simarjeet, who delivered an excellent penultimate over by allowing only five runs to help defend the target, also shared how he incorporates vital lessons from Indian legend MS Dhoni during key overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI use it every time. It\u2019s all about how to stay calm in pressure situations. As Dhoni bhai says, you have to be present in the moment where you are right now\u2014not dwelling on the past or thinking too far into the future. Staying in the present is the most important thing for me,\u201d the captain added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
East Delhi Riders batted first in a shortened 10-over match, scoring 118\/6. They were powered by Suryansh Raina's rapid 42 off 19 balls and a fast inning from Sujal Singh with 14 off 6. For Purani Dilli 6, Digvesh Rathi was the top bowler, claiming 2\/9 in his two overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
