It was an imperfect game, despite our shoddy bowling and fielding: R Ashwin
Ashwin was named Player-of-the-Match in the Eliminator clash and s poke about chatting with his teammates about the near-collapse situation. Ravichandran Ashwin said, "Pressure does these things (on the near collapse), we'll have to have a chat, but the important thing was we closed the game."
"It was an imperfect game, despite our shoddy bowling and fielding, we kept them down to a low score. As an international and IPL player, the responsibility was with me to do well (with the bat). We haven't played the perfect game, hopefully, we'll do well in the coming games. Thankful for the crowd for having turned up," he added.
