Hardik took responsibility for the defeat
After the match, Hardik said, “Chasing 130 is not difficult, but we lost wickets in the beginning. Tewatia got us back in the game by hitting some big shots, but I take responsibility for the loss, which I could not finish the match.” Could do it.”
He further said, “I feel bad for Shami because the pitch was not helping fast bowlers much, but still Shami played a key role in stopping such a low score. We will try to improve on our mistakes. Will do but also try to move on because we have won matches from such turns many times.
