“ It's just the first match. Khaleel Ahmed has a real knack for taking early wickets in the powerplay, and that set the tone for the Chennai side. As for Rohit, he has faced a huge number of left-arm pacers throughout his career, and he will continue to play with freedom. There's a long tournament ahead, and I'm excited to see how he goes. We'll also see a lot of variety in conditions. Here in Chennai, batsmanship getting through tricky phases is crucial. But when they return to Wankhede, it will be a completely different challenge, with conditions that suit Rohit and his team's style of play.
