Mar 27, 2024
Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], March 27 : Following his side's 63-run loss against Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Gujarat Titans (GT) batter Sai Sudharsan said that they will comeback stronger in their upcoming match.
In a video shared on the official social media handle of the GT, Sudharsan said that it was a great experience playing at the MA Chidambaram Stadium but they were upset with the loss against CSK.
He added that if they can fill a few gaps, then they can make a comeback in the tournament.
"Great playing at Chepauk and had a great experience here but a little bit upset because of the result. There are lot of things to improve for the next game. But we tried our best and I think we will do better in the next game. There are many many learnings in the first game as well as in this game. So, I think we will fill all those gaps and I think the result will be on our side. But we are focusing more on the process and we are just trying to tick our own boxes. The result will be a by-product of that. We will come back stronger in the next game," Sudharsan said.
