The boys have shown character to turn it around – Faf du Plessis

It was another fine victory for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru as they pulled off a pretty emphatic display against the Punjab Kings in all the departments. Despite Faf du Plessis falling early in the game, yet the brilliant catch to get rid of Jonny Bairstow and following that up with some excellent captaincy, the RCB skipper was delighted at his team’s fourth consecutive win.

Talking at the post-match presentation, Faf du Plessis said, “That was a good game. We have scored 200-plus in the last 5-6 games. We have had good conversations, we were making the same mistakes over and over again. Needed aggression with the bat. We just spoke about taking wickets. We have 6-7 options in the bowling department.”

He further added, “You need some form in your side. With a bit of luck is also required. We had a few guys looking for wickets and runs at the start of the tournament. The boys have shown character to turn it around. Everyone has chipped in with runs and the bowlers are taking wickets. For us it's important to focus on ourselves.We want to stick to the style of play that we want to do, if we do that it'll prove we are a really good team.”
