Chasing a below-par 163, the 21-year-old anchored the chase with a calm and c🌼omposed 62 not out as Titans won by six wickets with 11 balls to spare in New Delhi on Tuesday.
"He looked like a very organised player. Good against fast bowling, good against ♊swing. He came into the first game as a🃏n impact player and certainly created an impact, he played a cameo," the former India captain-cum-coach told official broadcaster JioCinema.
"Today, it was three-down and all the big stars gone. Shubman Gill was gone, (Wriddhiman) Sa🀅ha got out, and his captain Hardik Pandya got out. Both the Tamil Nadu guys (Vijay Shankar and Sudharsan) got together and put together a partnership."
Mohammed Shami (3/4🧸1 in 4 overs) and Alzarri Joseph (2/29 in 4 overs) were brilliant in the first 10 overs for Titans before while Rashid Khan (3/31 in 4 overs) took over to restrict DC 🦹to a chaseable score.
"Gujarat has always created t𝔍hat aura about themselves 'we'll restrict you to 160 and get that'. With an impact player, it makes it even easier for them. Sai Sudharsan constructed the innings perfectly," Kumble said.
Titans will nܫext play Kolkata Knight Riders in Ahmedabad on April 9, w♈hile DC will take on Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati a day earlier.
