Adam Gilchrist seems to realise that his side were just a wee bit unlucky to have missed out on a win. Here he shares his emotions on a narrow loss to Kings XI Punjab
Yeah that's the one let slip , we should have closed that game out. It's frustrating, but another great game of cricket. But certainly ione that we let get away from us.
probably that the last two balls off that over of Suman. We had a wicket in that over, few ones, then just two balls disappeared over the fence just took the momentum back their way. Even right till very end...we..were...as you say we were so near but we just didn't quite bowl that killer delivery. What we did though was bowl a delivery that allowed them back into the over. Brett hitting that straight six off a length ball. Then you had Chawla getting that one down the leg at the start of the last over for four. We just allowed them a little bit of an opening and they took it. They were good enough to take it.
we were obviously very keen to welcome back into the fold. And he sort of started it beautifully and showed the class that the whole world has seen so often. This will be an enjoyable little period for him, just to be able play some cricket in a different environment. And Brett looked very impressive too. So that's a credit to him to comeback after a long spell with injuries. So as you said, both played a huge part in the game.
