The head coach was also delighted with his team performance, especially from the younger players on Saturday.

Look, our team has a lot of new guys, most of them are NYPs, and we are trying to give our 100 per cent in every match. In today match, we played against one of the better teams in the tournament. UP Yoddhas have very good players, with experienced defenders and raiders, he added.

For us, Nitin had a good game, completing his Super 10, and Ali Samadi supported him. In defence, Reza (Mirbagheri) and Aashish (Malik) also made their mark, and the four defenders played well in combination. The team played according to the plan that was made, and helped us win the match, Redhu noted.

Head coach Narender Redhu also shed light on the role of his franchise in supporting the team.

We dont want to put pressure on our team. I want to go back to the game against Dabang Delhi K.C., when we lost by a narrow margin. Even after that game, we didnt put a lot of pressure on the team. We believe that the team will get the right result as long as the boys have the freedom to play their way. The bonding between the players, coaches and the franchise is brilliant. They treat everyone like family. As a result, there is no pressure and the team has the fighting spirit, he said. (ANI)
