Indian Premier League 2022 Points Table
Ishan Kishan: The intent and discipline in the last two games taught us a lot. There’s always pressure at this level and that brings a different excitement. It is important to maintain the processes before the game which I think is important. Sunil Narine, Pat Cummins, and Tim Southee are experienced and Umesh Bhai is also bowling well. We’ll look to keep it simple and watch the ball and react.
