Reddy, 20, said that his role was to rebuild the innings after quick wickets. “My role is to carry on till the 13th-14th over so that Klaasen gets a license to bang. There’s no point in Klaasen and Samad coming early, but not getting to score freely,” said Reddy at the post-match press conference.

The all-rounder hailed Bhuvneshwar for his brilliant final over and admitted that he wasn’t expecting a win. “I did not think we were going to win. I thought either we’d lose or tie. But that last-ball wicket... I felt so happy,” added Reddy, who smashed RR’s in-form Yuzvendra Chahal for two fours and two sixes in the 13th over. Reddy also said the victory against RR, following losses to Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings, was important. “Beating RR will boost our confidence. They are at the top of the points table,” he concluded.
