IPL 23 1st match CSK vs GT this match GT won by 5 wickets. Rashid Khan (Player of the Match): "First of all,thanks to almighty Allah. This crucial man of thematch award gives you a lotof confidence. I trymy best for all the three formats, try to give my100 percent every time andits great to help theside toa win.It was hard to the leftie, but the plan was to keepit more tight. The two crucial wickets gave usmomentum. I had it at the back of my mind toget those wickets. Those two are very dangerousbatters [Moeen Ali and Ben Stokes]. Moeen triedto go over the square leg but I tried to keep theline and length tight as I desired. More the timeyou be in the nets, more the better result you get.Thanks to the time I spend with the coachingstaffs and the confidence that Hardik gave. Theygive me more batting sessions in the net as well. Hardik Pandya (Gujarat Titans Captain): "Yeah,Imean, it was a brilliant performance. But wedid put ourselves in a fix with Rashidand Rahulgetting us over the line. At one stage, they werecruising towards 200, but we bowled really well torestrict them under the big total.It becomes difficult for me (Pandya) to pick thecorrect players when you have the new impactplayer rule. But Alzarri and others bowled well torestrict CSK. I realised that bowling hard lengthswas the way to go here and hence I asked Alzarrito bowl late in the innings.Rashid Khan as always was brilliant with both batand ball. I mean he is a fantastic player underpressure, he delivers. He is a real asset to theteam. He will give you wickets and some runs latedown the order.See, Shubman's and my shot selections weren'tright that time and we got out. We needed to batwell and take the game deep and finish the jobso that we don'tput massive responsibility for theplayers coming down the order."Shubman Gill: "I felt really good. Butdisappointed with the way, I got out. Happy withthe startI gave for the team. Ah definitely, itmakes a difference when you have got some runsunder the belt, got some international experience.The wicket is soo good here. You don't need tooverhit it. You just need to time the ball here and itflies away.No specific roles here. It's about who gets we/'settled and you need to keep going. The inteWriddhi bhai was setting in was to get as manyruns as possible in the powerplay. Yeah, very MS Dhoni (Chennai Super Kings Captain): "Well, Ithink we were slightly short with the total. Not thatwe batted badly. Just that we needed some extraruns since there was some dew during the hase.I thought we cOuld have just batteda bit morepositively earlier. We could have added somegood batsmanship during our innings. We justtried tO muscle every ball in the latter stages ofthe innings. Could have done a bit better.Imean Ruturaj is a classy batter. The way hebatted was delightful to watch. He times the ballreally wel. He knows when to accelerate andtakes the right decisions.Hangargekar is an upcoming bowler. He bowledwell. He has pace with him. We can'tafford tobowl any no balls. We should control what wecan. I felt that two left arm spinners were betteroptions and hence went with them. Yes, ShivaDube was an option, but I felt comfortable wiother bowlers."
