"I think it's par minus" - RR spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on RCB's first innings total in Eliminator clash of IPL 2024

At the mid-innings break, RR off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin reflected on the action that unfolded in the first innings and his wonderful spell. He said:

"It's been a bit of a tournament for me with two halves. The first half I was getting into the tournament struggling after a long Test series. Definitely the last six-seven games I've been bowling really well. Enjoying it. In fact I messaged Virat before the game saying we're going one more time on the big stage. Dew has come on nicely now."

Ashwin continued:

"This IPL, whether it's the nature or it's the IPL committee, we've not had much dew around the country. In Chennai and probably Guwahati we found ourselves 20-25 short. We made a match of it taking into the 19th over which possibly told us what the par score was. We have been struggling with the bat after the first half but it's about pressing the reset button. (On the score) I think it's par minus."
