After the match, Kohli said, ‘Everyone can see his (Jadeja) ability. I’m so happy to see him perform with the bat and the ball and on the field. He said, ‘Two months later he will play for the Indian team and it’s always nice to see your main all-rounder doing well with the bat. When he plays well and is filled with confidence, it gives him many opportunities. Kohli, who lost a record 37 runs in the final over, backed his fast bowler Harshal Patel, raising Chennai Super Kings to a big score.
After the defeat, Kohli gets another blow, for which he has to pay 12 lakhs.
CSK were 154 for four before the final over, but Jadeja added 37 runs in his final over. Kohli said, ‘Harshal bowled well and we support him. We give him responsibility, he threw out the frozen batsmen.
