After Hyderabad secured its second consecutive Buchi Babu crown, coach D. Ravi Teja was happy with how his gamers responded to strain conditions by means of the event.
“It was a pretty good tournament for everyone. We did miss a few players who were away for the Duleep Trophy, but the boys showed character and hunger. The way the middle-order and the spinners responded was very encouraging,” stated Ravi Teja after his staff prevailed over TNCA President’s XI within the last on Tuesday.
The coach had particular reward for Varun Goud, who topped the run charts (438) and clinched the Player-of-the-Tournament award.
“Varun, I feel, is very underrated. He should have been playing for a while now. For me, he’s the find of the season, and if he continues in the same way, he has a bright future,” the previous Hyderabad participant added.
At the identical time, the 38-year-old felt there have been areas the place the staff wanted to enhance. “One key thing is to make sure we close out games when we’re on top. Even in the final, we had a good start but then collapsed.”
Skipper Rahul Singh stated that whereas it was a more durable marketing campaign in comparison with final 12 months, he was blissful how his staff fought again from tough positions.
“We had many matches where we could have lost the lead or even the match. Even though the situations were tough, we pulled through. So, that was good to see, and it gives the team a huge confidence,” stated Rahul.
