IPL 2022: Rishabh Pant praised David Warner for playing an unbeaten 92-run knock against SunRisers Hyderabad at Brabourne Stadium.
David Warner's unbeaten 92 against Sunrisers Hyderabad in an IPL match on Thursday was one of the best innings Rishabh Pant witnessed from the sidelines, the Delhi Capitals skipper himself said. Warner's 58-ball magnificent effort helped Delhi beat SRH by 21 runs. "The way he batted, the way he paced the innings, it's one of the best innings I have seen (in the Delhi camp)," said Pant at the post match presentation.
He also praised Rovman Powell who made an unbeaten 67 off 35 balls.
"We knew what he (Powell) can give us, we backed him and he's coming out with flying colours now. We are just taking one game at a time and trying to give our 100%. Good and important win for us." Playing against his former franchise, Warner said he did not need extra motivation.
"It's a really nice wicket, I've had some success here. I knew if I played my strokes, it was going to come off.
"Challenging here in Mumbai with the humidity and I was cooked there towards the back end, I am getting older. Having Rovman at the other end was amazing. I didn't need extra motivation, we've seen what's happened before, it was good to get the win," said the Australian.
