After this defeat, let us know whom Captain Hardik Pandya blamed for the defeat.

Captain Hardik Pandya said that the wicket was good. No matter how you bowl, if the opposition team has scored 277 runs then it means that they have batted well. We were good at bowling, but it was a bit difficult there. More than 500 runs were scored in the match, and from this, we can understand that the wicket was good for batting. We could have tried something different, but we have a young bowling attack.

Pandya further said that if the ball goes into the crowd so many times, we will have to run around to complete the over on time. All the players including Tilak Verma, Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan batted well. Now we just need to fix a few things and we'll be fine.

At the same time, Pandya said about young pacer Mafaka that he was fantastic, you know in his first match he showed in front of such a crowd that he has heart. Even though he got runs, he seemed fine. He has the skill, he just needs some playing time.
