"It was a situation where you had to get bat to ball"- Rovman Powell after his cameo helps RR defeat RCB in IPL 2024 Eliminator

After the conclusion of the match, RR batter Rovman Powell reflected on his knock and win, saying:

"It wasn't a difficult situation. It was a situation where you had to get bat to ball. Thankfully for me I got a few boundaries away early so that minimized the pressure.

He also spoke about his conversation with Hetmyer on the pitch, saying:

(Discussion with Hetmyer) I was trying to tell him to be positive. Didn't want him to look for a single since when you look for a single the intensity can drop."

He continued:

"Just unfortunate that he got out. If it was up to me I would take it a little bit earlier so that when I reach the crease I'd have 10-15 balls to assess. But sometimes when you have quality players you will come in a bit later if the team requires it so you have to accept the role."

Rajasthan Royals will face off against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Qualifier 2 of IPL 2024 on Friday in Chennai.
