Punjab Kings’ Shashank Singh on Tuesday stressed on the importance of self-belief for a batter and said that he and his partner Ashutosh Sharma believed until the penultimate ball that they’ll take their team home versus Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
Chasing 283, Kings lost the match by just two runs. When Shashank and Ashutosh came together, 69 runs were needed off 27 balls.
“We have to give credit to Ashutosh for this - the way he batted in the last over (With 29 runs needed, Kings scored 26). We both believed till the second last ball (10 were needed) that it’s possible. We were talking in gestures that it’s possible,” he said at the post-match press conference here.
