He said the team showed great coordination and discipline, especially in defence, which helped them control the match. Dalal also praised the players for sticking to the plan and bouncing back strongly after a few close games, adding that the win will boost their confidence for the upcoming matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt was a convincing game, and I\u2019m happy that the team is back on track. I think our team is strong, and I was confident about our defence. The defence really stepped up and did a great job. Overall, it was a good performance. Yes, we did over-tackle a few times, but that happens. What\u2019s important is that we\u2019re finding our rhythm again. Our captain led well, and the entire defensive unit worked together,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Randeep also praised Ayan for his outstanding performance, as he scored 15 points in the match and reached a remarkable milestone of 300 points in his career.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The coach said Ayan has been consistent throughout the season and continues to impress with his calm and composed approach on the mat. He added that Ayan\u2019s maturity and skill make him one of the key players for the team and a bright prospect for the future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cAyan is our super raider. He\u2019s already scored over 300 points in such a young career. He enjoys his game, stays calm under pressure, and plays with maturity beyond his years. I\u2019ve recently started working with him, and I can say he\u2019s a special talent - sharp, composed, and full of skill,\u201d the coach said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cHe has everything it takes to become a star in the future. His defence was strong today, and he played a big role in our win,\u201d he further added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The coach credited the team\u2019s defence for the victory, saying that strong and consistent defending is what helps teams win matches. He added that while raiders often get the spotlight, it\u2019s the defenders who form the backbone of the team and make the crucial difference in tight games.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cAs for my coaching philosophy - I believe defence wins matches. Raiders can earn points, but if your defenders don\u2019t hold strong, it\u2019s hard to win. A good team needs defenders who support the raiders and stay consistent throughout. That\u2019s what makes a complete unit.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Captain Ankit also expressed his happiness after his team\u2019s convincing win. He said the players showed great teamwork and discipline, especially in defence, which helped them control the game and secure an important victory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI\u2019m very happy with the win. It was a close game, but the team played really well together, especially in defence. The coordination was good, and that made a big difference. I\u2019ve kept my focus and attitude consistent from the start, and now we just need to keep scoring more and building on this momentum. It was a great match overall,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
