'I Wanted To Get Us Off To The Best Start Possible': Marsh After Match-winning Ton Against RCB
Opener Mitchell Marsh: Opener Mitchell Marsh said his intent was to give Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) the best possible start in the powerplay after smashing a sensational 111 off just 56 balls in their thrilling nine-run win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Thursday.
Marsh’s explosive innings powered LSG to 209/3 in the rain-curtailed 19-overs-a-side contest, a total that eventually proved just enough as the hosts restricted RCB to 203/6 while chasing DLS adjusted 213 runs target, despite a fierce late fightback.
“I wanted to try and get us off to the best start possible. Yeah, I just tried to impact the power play as much as I could. It's probably been an area that we’ve struggled in this year so far, consistently. So, I wanted to try and get us off to the best start possible, and then once I got in, sort of try and cash in and pretty much just get as many runs as I could,” Marsh said in a video released by IPL on X.
