"I thought we were disciplined and the main thing to be an elite team is to make sure that you do it consistently. He's a big plus for us, the hard work is showing. The boys are doing a lot of work off the field and it's a really big confidence booster for us. No comments! In a situation like that, you have to understand that such things can happen. It shows that we always fight when we are challenged. The importance of doing things off the field translates onto the field. Really happy with the way our batting unit performed and the bowlers also did really well," Hope said after the match.
