Du Plessis said that it was almost the same as the previous match.

‘It was pretty much the same as the last match. If you follow the hit-the-deck hard strategy in the first few overs, it is very difficult to escape. Dropping the catch weighed heavily on us. We need to fix our top order.

He also spoke to the broadcaster after the match with Rajasthan captain Sanju

“It’s a really big win considering the way we started. After 15 overs, the matter seemed to be stuck but many thanks to Riyan Parag. We are continuously supporting him and today he showed the world how explosive he can bat. Without Dew we were 10-15 runs behind and the wicket was spinning a bit.
