Extremely sorry. I dunno how I missed this. Going same with the winning combination. We have the confidence and each know their role in the team. Hopefully we execute it well.

@zwarrior vs @VC the slogger​

 

[CerealKiller]

Our batting won it again for us. The death bowling was impressive too.

 

[Aravind.]

We batted very well, top 4 did there job, but disappointed with hard hitting Sarfaraz & Binny.
In bowling our bowlers did a decent job. Talented Starc & Jordon were expected to pick wickets, but they failed.
Aravind's performance was much needed one, when Watson & Aaron both had bad days on same match.
