"Very very happy and content" - PBKS captain Shikhar Dhawan after winning their season opener against DC in IPL 2024
Punjab skipper Shikhar Dhawan was satisfied with his team's performance after a comfortable victory against the Capitals. Reflecting on the win at the post-match presentation, he said:
"I was happy to be on the ground. I was preparing for this tournament. Playing competitive cricket after the last IPL so I was a bit nervous. That time I didn't chat with anyone as I was supposed to go with batting. Bowlers go with their own emotions.
Dhawan continued:
"We will chat later and see what we can improve on. We leaked a few extra runs. It was just the first game so it's normal. We got off to a good start. Sam played a brilliant knock and then Livi finished it off in style. It is a new ground so the focus was on using our brain and accessing the field. Very very happy and content."
