Rathore on RR's Performance

Varun Chakaravarthy said that the win over Rajasthan Royals will give them momentum and self-belief to pull off tight wins.

RR's Disappointing Season

Rajasthan Royals have had a season of close but no cigars, with losses in the Super Over, 2 runs, 11 runs, and 1 run.

Turning Point in the Match

Riyan Parag's dismissal in the 18th over to Harshit Rana's slower ball was the turning point in the match, allowing KKR to string together a tight few deliveries.

Rathour's Assessment

Vikram Rathour, RR's batting coach, said that the side hasn't clicked as a bunch, which has cost them games. He also mentioned that the fielding hasn't helped a great deal.

Focus Areas for RR

Rathour identified several areas for improvement, including:

• Collective batting performance
• Bowling as a group
• Fielding

Retention of Jos Buttler

Rathour spoke about RR not retaining Jos Buttler, citing that the management is happy with the six players retained, including Shimron Hetmyer.

Hetmyer's Performance

Rathour acknowledged that Hetmyer has had a mediocre season, but emphasized that he is a superb player who has done well in the past.
