Rajat Patidar: I think the surface is double-paced, especially for fast bowlers. Cutters can be used. The spinners will try to bowl back of a length as much as possible. I was just planning my innings, I was not thinking about the century. (4 consecutive sixes vs Markande) It was not a plan but I started well in that over, I was trying to maximise. Playing spinners, I try to maximise. to take as many runs in an over as I can, to keep the pressure on the bowler. I was trying to maximise against the fast bowler as well, but I'll try in the next match. (Advice to the bowlers) We should use good slower balls on this wicket.
21:10 Local Time, 15:40 GMT, 21:10 IST: SRH will be happy with this score. Not often you say that when their opponents make 206. But that is SRH's batting might this season.
