Winning close games always good for team morale: Quinton Kock after LSG’s maiden win
Mumbai: After beating Chennai Super Kings – one of the favorite teams of cricket lovers in IPL, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) player Quinton de Kock said “Winning such close games is always good for team morale.” LSG wicketkeeper-batsman praised an ‘unbelievable’ performance from the team.
“It was nervy, chasing 210 is always going to be a close game but the boys were quite calm. It was mixed emotions among everyone. I was pretty calm myself, we knew what was going on out there. But still to get it done actually is still a hell of a job done,” he added.
Chennai team who was sent into bat earlier posted 210 for seven. Opening the innings, the seasoned Robin Uthappa smashed a 27-ball 50 and Shivam Dube struck an aggressive 49 off 30 balls.
LSG will now take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in their next encounter on April 4 at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai.
