Punjab Kings suffered their first defeat of the season. Rajasthan Royals chased down 223 runs at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium. Shreyas Iyer's slow innings was a costly factor in the final result. Marcus Stoinis scored an unbeaten 62 runs off 22 balls, including four boundaries and six maximums.
"It depends on who you have coming in next. If Stoinis had already played two knocks like he did in this game, and he was still to come, you could consider it. But there was no one else down the order that was in better form. It would have been a brave call," Pollock stated.
His Intent Was There But... - Shaun Pollock on Shreyas Iyer
"His intent was there, and he was swinging at times. But he just couldn't get anywhere near the connection he wanted. You have one of these days where you try as hard as you can, but the timing is not on. I wouldn't read too much into it, but it'll be something where he'll look at himself. No one will bring it to his attention, but he'll be conscious of it to ensure he doesn't fall into that trap again," said Pollock (via the aforementioned source).
“If you're a player in form, you're always backing yourself. So he is telling himself yeah I know but I'll probably hit three sixes from here,” Bhogle said.
