One of me or Chris Gayle look to bat 15-16 overs as deep as possible so the others can play around,” said Rahul at the post-match press conference. “That doesn’t mean that you don’t play your shots. I tried my shots a few times, it didn’t come off, few went for boundaries, few hit the fielders.” Rahul though finished with a strike-rate of 141.07 but at one stage he had just made 39 off 36 deliveries when the required rate was well above 15 runs per over.
